Jeannie still moving with south component

#1 Postby stormernie » Wed Sep 22, 2004 5:05 pm

As of the latest satellite loop 2115 Jeannie is moving with a southerly component (SW-WSW) - if this trend continues for the next 12 -18 hours than we may be looking at a FLorida landfall around where Frances came ashore.

This is being forecasted by the NOGAPS model and it is due to the continued presence of a High Pressure Ridge to the north. It will be interesting to see the model run this evening.

As always comments are welcome

I'm not trolling. I'm joking seriously when I say a WSW trend has finally materialized for those who have been waiting for it!

Unless I'm missing something, it's pretty obvious that this storm is moving southward.

I believe this storm has made a U-turn and is heading back to Haiti. Pure evil.

Sanibel:

We took a trip through your beautiful island(s) on Sunday so I could take some pictures for my clients who are still up north and haven't seen their homes yet. Although a major cleanup has been underway and much progress made, I can not believe the damage that was done. I cried when I saw Periwinkle even though I knew what to expect. The tenacity of the islanders is amazing as everyone I spoke with expects to be up and running in time for "season". I certainly hope so.

Go away Jeanne and take your friends with you-we certainly don't need to feel the effects of any more tropical systems this year. There is way too much healing that needs to be done in almost every area of the state.

For what I have seen in the late few hours is going more West than south.

Well, yeah, the movement is WSW. But the point is that the forecast track has her moving due west at this point. I don't think that's going to happen. I think she gets at least half a degree further south, maybe a little more. Not quite to 25N, but reasonably close.

It is nearly at their forecasted LAtitude position for 5AM already.
