No-it didn't work, not even after refreshing the webpage. I'll try clearing my cache now.
That's probably the best idea. Cache clear, restart browser. If your problem persists, it's time for a hammer.
Tried cleaning cache and restarting the browser. POS still didn't load. Here's the homepage for all of this stuff:
http://cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/tropic/tropic.html
That webpage loads for me, but when I click on any of the menu items on the left side of page, I get the hurricane looking background, but nothing else loads.
Any ideas? If not, I will got get my hammer!

If that storm gets bigger...it won't matter if it's off the west coast of Florida by 100 miles...we're gonna get wet at the very least. It already looks to be the size of Texas!

The projections are still a bit wide for me to place any bets on it landing anywhere on the peninsula, and it's not really my kind of odds for it to even hit Florida at all.
Well I hope your right, but at least the people around here are not taking any chances after last year. The gas cans bragaids are out in force, and I imagine most of the lumber yards will be empty by friday along with the gas stations from the looks of it. I still haven't gotten all the trees out of my yard from and as wet as it has been I imagine we'll lose the rest if it comes this way again.

I must say the update you have for us on the main page Clark is excellent. You did an awesome job explaining everything that could influence . I like how you keep the door open for landfall anywhere along the eastern/central gulf. Lately it seems people are latching on to a New Orleans hit, Not that its out of the question, it certainly isnt but there are many other areas around the gulf that may have to deal with . Like I said a few days ago, Im thinking landfall will occur somewhere from Morgan City to Applachicola. I know its a large area but we are 4 to 5 days out, theres no reason to be specific right now. Watch the trends and pray we have some upwelling in the gulf from and Cindy, if not there isnt much else that will slow down . Have a good night everyone and happy tracking.

There is a little bit of upwelling and mixing in the Gulf from Cindy, but it is confined largely to the north of the Yucutan. Most of the waters north of there to the Louisiana coast are same of the warmest in the basin -- and are especially deep with that warmth -- meaning that when coupled with the relatively fast motion of the storm through to landfall, there is little signature of the storm there.
With projected to emerge north of Cuba, it is not likely to feel any of the ocean temperature impacts from Cindy. Note that was too long ago -- a month now -- for its effects to still be around. A tropical storm will only typically impact ocean temperatures for 5 or so days; stronger hurricanes can have longer-lasting impacts, but not a tropical storm.

Clark I hope you are right. It seems every hurricane that comes to this part of the gulf makes the dreaded "right turn". Opal, Erin, , , etc all seemed to turn to the north or Right as they got about 100-150 miles from land. Accuweather says it is because the water is cool here (compared to the rest of the Gulf) Tonight the Gulf Temp is 83 at Pensacola Beach.

Erin 95 , Opal 95, Ivan 04, Dennis 05, and that's enough!!!!

And all this time, I thought it was because the upper air systems influenced the turn.

I have a question or two.
Watching the water vapor loop:
http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/DATA/RT/watl-wv-loop.html
I see a wave of sorts that starts at about 68/25 and seems to ripple north to 68/30 or so. It is subtle, but does appear to come from .
Is this a phenonemom that is common?
What effect does it have on the surrounding air masses?

I've been out of the loop for the past several hours working on some data, but I just glanced at the forcast models to see what is going on. Am I seeing the 18Z correct? I think I see a frame that shows with Cat 5 winds just prior to landfall in Cuba. Just want to make sure I'm reading the models right. Thanks...

I can't help but see a stronger northward componant, especialy in the last few frames. Perhapes my eyes are playing tricks on me, after watching about 1000 of these loops today...

yep, 141 knots at friday 8AM EDT just prior to landfall in west-central Cuba from the 18 Z run. That coverts to 161 mph if I've done my math correct.
Can we say that will be the brother of Camille? I know the tends to over do it, but probably a CAT 4 is not out of the realm of possibility.
Remember, that's the 18Z model. Before became a hurricane. The 00Z model will replece that in around 3 hours.

I've been noticing that, too. If you put your finger on the first loop and watch it till the end, you can definitely see a more NW movement instead of WNW. Guess we'll know soon enough. I definitely don't think it's a jog.
Than again, I'm not a met and I don't jog.

If it stays on it's current track,it woud hit the middle keys.And there is some info that suggest it could be a little east of that.So South Fl. is far from being out of the woods.

It does appear that way but it will be interesting to see how that path continues as navigates through the islands.

Latest infrared is showing that is developing a strong eyewall and continues to look better organized. I have him currently moving at 305 degrees which will take him just to about the NE corner of Jamaica continuing towards the south coast of Cuba. Think will be a CAT 2 by tomorrow morning or midday at the latest.

The 11PM discussion is coming soon. I wonder if the will address the "apparent" NW "jog".

I can't make up my mind which one is going on here tonight. I have seen nothing in the loops to suggest a NW movement. There was possibly a jog earlier, but the last few frames show a jog back to the west...generally still a wnw movement. That said, it does now appear he will graze the north coast of Jamaica.
