You can clearly see the extent of the amplitude over the Gulf.

Also note how it is, as part of the "wake" if you will, left behind by Frances, sandwiched between the two ridges, the western ridge holding tough, and the eastern, Atlantic ridge struggling to maintain its west-southwestward advance at present.

The road north is there for Ivan, the only point of conjecture is where the off-ramp is located.

BayouVenteux, THANKS for that link, it is so much easier to "see" the reasoning behind theNHC forecasts with that projection than the flat 2D stuff I've been looking at.
