Take a look yourself, notice how the clouds are moving NW south of Louisiana and west of Florida.

As well here Stromie. Only then once the NHC gets this data, and we see a shift to the north, I would become concerned.

Otherwise the cone/landfall has continued to shift south.

Strange clouds around here at sunset. Looming hazy fog bank type clouds at mid-level and cirrus above.

If you look at the western Gulf visible satellite loop the surface clouds bend up to the north before Texas. I don't know if that is the western edge of the High or meaningless as far as track.

could be significant....they all run pretty much SSE or so from the southern BOC to the coast and all the way to LA...

If there is something forming over in EPAC it could explain the weakening.


The shortwave in Texas doesn't strike me as plunging or particularly strong, so a south track into Mexico makes sense...
