Bouy Location to Emily now:

[cycloneye]

The eye will pass south of bouy but neverless pressure falls,strong winds and wave heights will be changing there as the core gets closer.

True, it will be a close call on the sustained Hurricane Force winds.

Seems to me that the hurricane got closer to the bouy than I thought it would get

[InimanaChoogamaga]

Yup, maybe a little northern shimmy again. Not enough to help Cancun tho IMO.

[deltadog03]
