Don't forget that the position of the eye will be somewhat skewed at that long of a range...

Packing like crazy, tying things off, all the things you do when you're scrambling because you're pretty much in the path of a hurricane - you don't think about smiling, much less laughing. You just made me roll out of my chair howling with laughter! Many thanks for the jolt!

Here's an example of what you can make with the images:

A 5-hour loop of Dennis.

I've made some pretty neat gigantic time lapses using these images and a software package called "Gif contruction set 32"

I'll try and keep this updated in hopes of keeping the fragile cease-fire between the 101st WNW airborne and Patton's 3rd NW Army.

[AJC3]

Thought I'd bump this.

Near the end of this 6-hour time lapse, you can really see how Dennis has "ridden" the WNW shape of the south coastline over the last few hours. Now that it's reached somewhat of a bight, it seems like it will have no choice but to grudgingly head inland.

[Normandy]

....come one Dennis, you have to go inland now.

[chris_fit]

Did it slow down quite a bit or is it just me?

[jpigott]

man, when this is all said and done with Dennis is going to have done a number on the south central cuban coast

[chris_fit]

Wobblin due west now.
