Re: HURRICANE IRMA LOUNGE

Another tweak to the west at 2PM. Hope those on the west coast have been paying attention... it sounds like they have.
Had to create a new account my previous one wouldn't log in despite resetting my password (twice in fact).
"At 200 PM EDT (1800 UTC), the distinct eye of Hurricane Irma was
located by a reconnaissance plane and Cuban radars near latitude
22.0 North, longitude 76.0 West. Irma has been moving toward the
west near 14 mph (22 km/h), but the hurricane should resume a
west-northwest motion later today."
Wonder if this movement to the west is a prolonged wobble influenced by the Cuban topography....blocking off some of the southern inflow and drawing Irma to the south?
