Re: Hurricane Ivan About to Enter the Gulf of Mexico, TD#11 Forms East of Leewards

Interesting portion of the 5pm NHC advisory:


>>>At 5 PM EDT...2100z...the center of Hurricane Ivan was located near
latitude 21.3 north...longitude 84.9 west or about 30 miles...
45 km...south of the western tip of Cuba.

Ivan is moving toward the north-northwest near 9 mph...15 km/hr.
However...a northwestward motion is expected to resume later tonight
or early Tuesday morning<<<<<<<<<


Sounds like they are thinking the hurricane is not going to continue a recurve....
