How far would it be from palm city / Stuart area? Is gardens what 20 miles south?

I'm probably 30 miles south. The distance from Palm City is probably 115-120nm and that's a guestimate without knowing an exact location.

Thank you. The length of time it heads wnw to nw will make a difference for us.

And after that southerly wobble, now we are seeing a northerly wobble. So the location of the center of circulation might be getting right back in line with the original forecast points. It will be interesting to see what happens at this crucial juncture.

There are definitely some positive signs that the storm is weakening, which is another positive step (unless what Levi mentioned earlier starts to happen).

It looks like the cloud tops are starting to warm slightly, could be some weakening starting from upwelling/land interaction/ERC. Eye still looks good though.

Looking like the models and the NHC had this stall nailed a long time ago, should give a bit more confidence to the sharp north turn and offshore track although everyone stay vigilant, obviously.

Wow! Alot of the modeling and NHC nailed this! I would not think it could stop on a dime. 2mph for even 20 hours keeps it well off SFL. I want more data to see if it really pulled off a nearly dead stop. I suspect it is some weird math error based on the obvious loop wobble. This should slow gradually as it approaches, not lose 60% of its forward speed an hour. Love to hear from some historians about other stalling storms forward momentum decay rate. I am well outside of my expertise and experience.

Could this be the stall we've been eagerly anticipating? If so, this could potentially be very good news for the entire SE as this is early. However, because it is quite a bit earlier than model consensus had the stall, I'm wondering if this is a fakeout and that it will resume slow westerly movement. Hopefully not.

Also, cloud tops are warming, indicative of further weakening, which I assume would be largely due to upwelling and some due to land. Remember what Levi said about the HWRF. He thinks that it has been showing a motion more toward the NW than NNW after the slowdown and change in direction from W due to a lower steering level caused by weakening being assumed due to upwelling. Let's see what happens. Do we already have the real stall now that will then change to a NNW move offshore FL. Or does it later threaten central/NE FL like the many HWRF runs?

The current satellite image of Dorian stalled over Grand Bahama is probably one of the craziest sat loops in recent memory.

It is definitely still moving...just so slowly...right up the spine of the island. I cant imagine how it is on Grand Bahama right now. If you're in the eye you may be in it for multiple hours.

On its 2nd 360 wobble. I would bet its true motion is 4 mph WNW
not 2. Still going to stall before it passes the island. Brutal even with a weakening storm. Tomorrow will be interesting to say the least.

The Miami radar (ch 7) I am watching (stalled now) under FUTURE (4AM-10AM) seems to show it moving due North and maybe Briskly at about 10AM. Could it start it up so soon?

Anything the can stop like that on a dime can certainly take off when the steering currents kick in. Never seen anything like it.

I have no idea what the record is for being in a Cat 5 eye but I suspect the Western Bahamas is going to exceed it.

Imagine walking out of your home (or what's left of it) into the bowl of a Cat 5 eye, which continues spinning at full speed above you for hours, still being fed by warm ocean waters on both hemispheres. It's just crazy. I wouldn't wish on anyone what those citizens of Bahamas are going through, but they are possibly witnessing something no one else on earth has, at least not quite like this.

Western circulation nowhere near as intense as Eastern. Weakening well under way.

The radar site TPBI is at the same latitude as Dorian making it easier to see path and changes...basically a head on shot until the turn really starts. TFLL is just south and similar view if TPBI “takes a nap” like it is right now. Sigh
