Re: Tomas Forecast Lounge

That was an interesting jog around St. Vincent as seen on the French Antilles radar loop. Tomas is still strengthening and developing a rather impressive organization. The short term track still carries it WNW to south of Hispaniola where it may slow before making that northward turn. That's not good news for Haiti since housing in and around Port-au-Prince is still in a shambles. Tomas may well be a major hurricane at that point as well.

EDIT: The latest sat pics indicate that there is dry air being entrained from the South, so that may inhibit some intensification in the short term.
