Re: Hurricane Warnings up from Grand Isle, LA to Apalachicola, FL and Puerto Rico

No prob, Clark. Thanks for the informative posts.

I guess I should have clarified, as Phil has noted. What I meant to say was that Ivan's overall appearance is more ragged than in the past, having warmer cloud tops and a less symmetric eye. I'm not trying to imply a weaking trend, and am fully aware that this could very well be another phase in Ivan's evolution. It is true, that this in no way detracts the fact that this is a powerful hurricane and I certainly hope for the best for the people affected by Ivan in the future and pray for everybody's well being. I just tend to make observations just to note changes that may, or may not (<--- most likely), be significant.
