Well, one thing with these tests ... they demonstrate just how hostile the current environment is to any tropical systems. Down to 0 knots in less than 48 hours.

Look at the latest plots. One of them (XTRAP) shows it heading in the general direction of Florida and the Bahamas! The LBAR seems to want to loop it.
