No, I'd say they are seeing that strong ridge and are reacting accordingly. They may not being seeing how strong it really is though.

Does anyone remember that just a couple of days ago the NHC official track took Irene directly over Bermuda? Look at the cone now...that is quite a westward shift we have seen in forecast. (Bermuda isn't even in that huge 5 day balloon anymore!)

i still think their path is too far north. there is no way this thing can just abruptly take a NW path in order to make those projected short term points.

the NWC says the weakness may force it northward. That is probalby why they have such a NW path. PS when will georgia ever get hit?

I'd say Irene is now a different system than yesterday. Before she was de-coupled, meaning the LLC and MLC were not together. Earlier this morning, the QS pass reflected an open wave. That was "Old Irene "dying off.

Go here http://weather.msfc.nasa.gov/GOES/goeseasthurr.html

click on high zoom and animate image, then click on "New Irene"

Notice how the open wave is closing and that now the circulation is coupled? Cool huh? Now if this continues we should see contibued development. The outflow is now circular denoting the anticyclonic flow.

I promised myself I would not look at this today.... :roll:

Any thoughts on what Stewart mentioned in the discussion re: possible center being down at 21N?

If you look at the loop, there appears to be a definite spin down at 21N.
