Re: Irene Storm Preps

that eastward drift has looked apparent to me in the IR loop since early afternoon. a lot of dry air to the west of this beast sems to be causing it some struggles.

it is a rather impressively large wind field, and it will give a taste of the tropics to a lot of people who never have experienced it. looking at the latest loop, maybe the center misses Cape Hatteras...but with the size of the storm it really matters little. A lot of people are going to see a lot of wind and rain.
