well, I may not have brought this far enough into the GOM since this has shifted even farther to the left already

Derek,

What will the environmental elements affecting reorganization and intensification in the Gulf look like?

[Edited to include the following:] I realize the SSTs should be favorable. Will there be enough shear to inhibit development, or is it a matter of not enough time over water, state of organization upon reemergence in the Gulf, etc?

Should a TS warning and Hurricane watch be up for the northern gulf coast at this point?

well, with the shear going on vacation, we could easily see the intensification I was expecting earlier in the week and it is not impossible for it to gain its current intensity in the GOM, especially if this more westerly track continues

Derek

Models show coming in over Pascagoula MS, what would your estimate of the winds be at that time?

Thanks

Now I'm getting alarmed...

The 11am NHC track brings it to 70 mph near Apalachicola Monday Morning. It could easily reach Cat 1 status with that track. If the track goes farther west, it will be even stronger.

The good news, for me, at least, is the track is a lot farther west and now takes it over Eastern Mississippi instead of Central Alabama.

if the eye wall becomes better organized soon, then a cat 2 is not out of the question

Derek it is trying to tighten a smaller eye off. The winds on one of the islands show that there is a smaller eye forming. This is going to get stronger.
