NO! Her LLC is still moving WNW. The models are struggling with this, and will change. Last night I thought she would get pulle NW by the ULL, but tht is filling and she 's moving WNW now. If she is still below 26.5 on Saturday morning all bets are off on her pulling out to sea. The ridge should block the northward move.

why haven't they put a plane in her yet then they could find the exact center and then maybe have better model intialization with the actual center fix?The discussion said the 3 agencies were spread out by 90nmi which is pretty significant and could help with motion and and future motion so WHY NO PLANE

i think most of us are all asking the same question, would seem prudent since we are now in the 5 day window of possible landfall

The NHC still seemed fairly uncertain in their discussion this morning. They are saying most of the models predict a return of Southwesterly mid level flow by day 4-5, but there is low confidence that will actually happen.

The GFDL still brings the system fairly close to the Outer Banks.

The NHC seems to be staying left of the models for now.

>>Woke up this morning smelling fish

Des,

There are so many jokes I thought of when I read this title, but I don't feel like getting any PM's this early. :D

Irene looks like it's going to be a close call with the Outer Banks/Eastern North Carolina. I don't have an opinion on landfall or recurvature. I'm just viewing her as a potential threat (as stated yesterday in the NHC thread) that everyone on the East Coast should be monitoring closely.

Some people have been calling her a fish all along, guess what you have all been wrong, and I think you will be wrong again. I call these people "fish mongers" :lol:
