If ya'll can't disagree with a little respect, take it somewhere else. This is ridiculous.

calidoug, are you always such a smart-alec? If anyone is guilty of personal attacks, it's you. Cool it.

See I can't leave when you make comments like this. We cannot be talking about heading if you want to analyze three hours of data. You cannot gauge a heading by doing that. I've said that twelve times, but it's obviously not resonanting. Secondly, you cannot gauge a heading without coordinates. What do you think the NHC uses, their eyes like you????

Maybe you should look real close at the images. Also the eye is contracting and turning from East-west to N-S tricking the eye into thinking its WNW.

You're almost there... think harder.

Hint: since it *is* heading N of W, that implies [fill in the blank]

LOL! I don't know where I came up with you and sarchasm. I must have been mistaken.

Man...the 0745 shows bobbing down in the more westerly track...nowhere near a 290 - 300 heading...this is going to get interesting since it is way off of the NHC forecast track even at this point.

Actually, with two frames, you don't need absolute coordinates. Relative position suffices.

Are you kidding me. A tenth of a degree north and full degree west is not 290 kid. Thanks for wasting my time but go to bed since your up past bedtime.

SG, my fault. I should have just let it go a long time ago. He is right, I keep trying to and then I give in to responding again. I will let it go, because you are right it is ridiculous.

P.S. It's going to kill me to not respond to that last one, but I won't!

SSW now! heading to Panama!

Solid evidence of the due west motion. 11pm advisory was 17.5 N the 0612z recon was 17.4 then 0743z recon was 17.4.

Or better yet...
11pm: 17.5N 76.9W
5am: 17.5N 78.0W

Yes, it looks like the eclipse period was just about the only time it was moving North. Good, I think.

Yeah, good for Jamaica. Well, better for Jamaica. They're still getting hammered.

Let's argue about it with 4 pages of posts for 6 hours. sad. debate is one thing but this is no longer a discussion and more like children fighting over a candy bar

Lockhart · #76 Postby **Lockhart** » Sat Sep 11, 2004 4:47 am

? It was one hour of argument. Also, it's strange for you to come newly to the discussion, after it clearly ended on a more amicable note, and claim it's "no longer" a discussion.

Anyway, I sure am happy it went 1.1 West and 0 North. :-)
