Considering her environment, I don't think she looks half bad. If she is indeed off at the NE fix, she may stay north of PR.



umm.. no i said the vortex to the SW will slowly take over. :)

Either SSD or my computer is caching images and not refreshing. Most frustrating.



Mines doing the same......

Anyone think this is like Debby in 2000 to some extent? Watkins just emailed me that wonderful sentiment. Erika does not look like it will last through the week based on models and reality. Oh well, just par for the course this season I suppose. At least most of the agencies forecasting a below normal season will be able to stand tall and proclaim how right they were. So there should be some good press there in a few months.

From everything I have digested today (here and elsewhere) this is very close to what I am thinking as well. In fact, I just emailed a map created by another pro met saying "this is more what I'm thinking" - the only differnce is that map is a tad south of yours even (not much)...
Of course that begs the question "then what" but honestly I don't even want to think about that yet.


Ha! We have to make a 7-day track. And it's going out in the next 30 minutes or less.


Hopefully the "team" is working a correct solution. :ggreen: You folks are earning your money with this one.

Another overnight burst wouldn't surprise me. Anyone else?

as I said before, http://www.nwhhc.com/satellite.html no messing with java or flash and the loops update.

I am not sure what SSD is doing that is causing the loops not to update (this morning, they wouldnt even loop for me)

Nope, just a EURO model that you have to pay for.

Geeze, I think it is choose your vortex time. I must stop looking at the visables and infrareds, my brain is full.

I think I'll come back tommorow and see if Erika still exists :)

If that new burst at 17.8N-59.5W is the center it will grow and show us where it is. If so it is above the islands.

Personally I think Erika is a bit Bipolar. If she takes her meds she may make up her mind :)
