Emily is FINALLY now starting to look like she is getting her act together. I wouldn't just yet write her off as a Mexico only threat.

The stronger they get, generally, the better the odds of gaining latitude.

Maybe I'm looking at her wrong but the 0015 looks a little WNW or even NW to me? http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/DATA/RT ... -loop.html

And remember, we still have to get through the overnight convective diurnal maximum....so this strengthening trend should continue overnight....

I believe she's moving more WNW now, but that NW movement is probably an illusion because of how she's blowing up right now.

Possible center relocation. This would lessen the impact of the South American coast as well..

I should also note that it changes the general track a few days down the road as it obviously poses a greater risk to the Gulf States -- primarily Texas.

Am I supposed to provide a disclaimer for this? :uarrow:
