Eye-type feature???

#1 Postby wxmann_91 » Wed Aug 24, 2005 12:20 pm

OK, I know this isn't an eye, but an eye-type feature is apparent on visibles and on the Miami long-range radar just to the north of Eleuthera heading due west. New MLC? Or LLC reforming to the north?

I'm ready for the bashing now. Comments though welcomed. :wink:

Check the recon thread this afternoon to see what they find in terms of how strong is the system.

Very interesting, however it could just be a dry slot. Like Cycloneye said we'll just have to wait for recon.

I think it's a dry-slot because if you look at the tropical forecast points, the opening is very far to the right of the forecast track and I doubt the NHC is off THAT much lol
