It did happen, at least for those special people who have a great need to see something other than reality. :lol:


You know what, I am so tired of this. Funny that your location is not posted next to your name. Say what you want and see what you want, but the facts are the facts. Stop eyeballing it and use a tool that can actually give you correct information. Just because you see it, doesn't make you right and everyone else wrong. The motion over the last 7 hours if you take into account the slight jog south and then the slight jog north is pretty much due west as is pretty obvious from the coordinates of the storm.

17.3 76.5
17.5 76.9
17.4 77.3
17.4 77.6

Show me 290 out of those coordinates. I am begging you to.

Sorry for the rant, but I am tired of the comments about this boards favorite word "-removed-".

Forgive me, I failed to realize you were Church of Yucatan.

Of course, it is going due West. In fact, Southwest.

The satellites will deceive you.

Do not trust them.

Never mind, I am not going to bother. It's obvious that some people think this is a game or whatever. I don't even know what your talking about anymore.

No hard feelings.

Hmmm... 7 hours... Was I talking about the past 7 hours?

Let's look...

Oh!

No, I was talking about motion between 0345Z and 0645Z!

How shocking!


Perhaps instead of ranting, you should try reading.

Like I said nevermind. I have the information on another thread, I am not wasting keystrokes on this one anymore.

Recon would say what differently? Just look at the 3:45 position and then the 6:45 position. Recon would *not* say that that movement didn't have a positive North component. It's incredibly obvious. I think it's strange you've posted about five times denying what is obvious to anyone with eyes--without actually having looked at the motion in question. Weird.

As for the coordinates--they don't list the 3:45 set, so how can he possibly "supply" your desired triangle?

Weather, the Church of Yucatan comment wasn't meant for you. The one following that post was.

The motion between 0345z and 0645z is West. I know a great eye doctor up here if you'd like to see the man to check your eyes.

famous line..."put it in your pantry with your cupcakes"

forget about it ... it is heading more west than north and thankfully the eye has not made landfall on Jamaica ... now lets wait and see where it takes us.

Remember Sir Ivan was supposed to be over Haiti 3 days ago

That's cool. My bad man, it's just late and I try to put the truth out there. Believe me I want no part of Ivan. My home would be under 20 feet of water. I apologize for the snapiness, but this is my life and my career, and it means a lot to me. If I am saying something, I believe it to be fact.

Are you talking to me, because I can show you advisory and recon stuff to prove you wrong. Satellites can decieve you when you watch them too long and the shape of the eye changes.

NorthGa, it's incredibly obvious from the 0345Z and 0645Z IR frames that the motion is not due W.

To state otherwise suggests some sort of ailment, though whether physical or psychological I cannot say.

Might I suggest you examine large images available on the NRL site, and measure the positions carefully, and report back to us on your findings?

Yes, I was asking you the first question. What were (or where can I find) the 3:45 location and the 6:45 location data?

NorthGaWeather, here are some simple instructions.

Go to the NHC site, and click on the IR loop.

Slow it down.

As it runs, position your mouse pointer on the very center of the eye at 0345Z.

Now watch the jump to 0645Z.

Compare the eye position to your mouse.

Voila!

WNW at 285-290.

See, it's easy.

OK, seriously my last post on this subject cause I am tired. Yes, in the last three hours, Ivan took a jog back a little north. However, all this did was even out the jog it took to the south previously. You do not compute motion based on 3 hours.

And now we see the WNW motion continues at 0715Z.
