FRANCES IS NOW HEADING ALMOST DUE NORTH

#1 Postby redfisher » Sun Sep 05, 2004 5:45 pm

or, at least, it has appeared to be doing so for the last hour or so.

Does anyone else see this?

Thanks,

Red

Honestly, if you look at her on the extended loops, she looks to have been going almost true northwest since landfall. This thing isn't likely to get further west than Applichicola.

I saw the same thing. Seems it moved due north in the last few frames. Have to see if this continues..would only make rain flooding worse for those in Florida. :(

Obviously, if given the choice, I'd prefer to be on the West side of this thing.

Waiting is oh so fun. We finally got a nice "little" band a couple of hours ago. Tomorrow should be interesting.

I think it's an illusion. The aparant eye is rotating around a center of circulation to the west of the aparant eye but it does look stationary.
