Ivan and Cuban Landfall

#1 Postby golter » Mon Sep 13, 2004 10:38 am

It appears to my amateur untrained eye, that Ivan's eye will travel over some portion of the far western tip of Cuba. NHC may have actually missed a predicted coordinate to the west of Ivan. If this scenario holds and current 325 heading (dont flame me for the 325 call, its what I see) I think Tampa is back in the mix. I dont see anyone call for a western turn, when and if the due north path plays out, so that being said I do not see Ivan going any further west than Nawlens and any further east than Tampa.

I voted yes because its not what I expect. The reasoning is clouded, but I assure you there. ;)

It will be very close but I think Ivan just barely misses Cuba. But by that time, I also believe the north turn will be very pronounced. IMHO

The storm was supposed to turn toward the W tip of Cuba 2+ days ago.
