Re: Trough's Effect On Ivan

It might have an impact, yes, but moreso of one weakening the ridge as opposed to dropping down and picking Ivan up. The impulse is a bit far to the north and not diving much to the south to have much more of an impact than that on Ivan, in my opinion. In fact, based upon the upper-air data and water-vapor imagery, the trough is about done digging and should begin to move zonally or lift ever-so-slightly with time. Just my view, though.
