The eye should be moving onto the short range KW radar soon, we will be able to get a good read on movement then.

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

A 5-hour loop of Dennis.

http://mywebpages.comcast.net/wxman0071 ... _Radar.gif

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.


That is great AJC3. How would I compile those into the loop that you have. Is it hard to do? I would like to know so I can keep a file going.. Thanks for your input.

Based on his forward speed of 17 mph... Dennis has another 2-3 hours over Cuba. Having said that...he is maintaining his inner core rather nicely.

He is looking good. Also take a look at that chain saw look forming on the northern side of its Cdo.

ALHurricane, I hate to go off-topic, but whats you're current thinking for us here in Memphis in terms of remants? It looks like its headed in this general direction.

Sorry for briefly going off-topic Mods. Thanks in advance, AL.

jkt,

If the mods get mad out us, it's all on your head! j/k :D

I am becoming more inclined to thing the Memphis area could experience some tropical storm force winds. Even a greater chance of this occurring across north MS. A lot of rainfall is going to occur and isolated tornadoes cannot be ruled out either.

It may be the first time we throw out the Inland Tropical Storm Watch. We'll have to wait and see.

Thanks. I am of course concerned about rain and the tornado threat especially in NE MS and W TN given the track. TS force winds are a bit concerning, with that and the rain combined we could have some serious tree damage.

Inland Tropical Storm Watch? I almost feel like I'm on the coast. Won't you issue HLSs too, IIRC?

And, I take all the blame for this! :D
