.4 N and .2 w since the last update.... first time we've seen more than a.1 difference in the n and w movement. NNW may be taking shape finally.

This is better news for Mississippi GulF Coast at the moment.

That looks about right. A 7.0 would mean Cat-5, probably.

Mathmatically NNW should be 337.5

270 = West
360 = North

315 = North West
337.5 = North North West

330 is just an average that is used...

50 miles east of Mobile, Tomarrow around noon central time. The storm appears to be reforming its perfectly red round cdo. I just got done looking at Ivans Advisories. In it appears its right over the Eddie right now intill around 29.5 north. Then you have to remember that there has not been a Charley/Frances to mix the water up over the Eastern Gulf. Plus its warmer any way because its July. Outflow is expending/cdo eye tighting slowly...So I expect some increase of the winds.

I expect
145 now
6am update
150/930 millibars
8am Advisorie
155/928 millibars
10 am Advisorie
As it is starting to move over water which is 82 to 84 degrees instead of near 88 degrees.
145 mph/932 millibars
12pm
Nearing landfall...
145 mph/934 millibars
2pm
Inland
125 mph/945 mililbars

The only thing is, it doesnt look like it will move over MUCH cooler waters... the current track has Dennis heading right in between the two cool eddys so he'll move over cooler waters but more like 88-89 down to 85-86
