Thank you for this site -- I sincerely wish I had found it before Charley.
I have a question about Jeanne & the loop that she might make. At the expected location of that loop, would crossing over her own track make a difference in her strength? And would it be a different result if a loop happened in the GOM?
Welcome aboard, I hope the healing is beginning in Punta Gorda.
Jeanne probably isn't generating a whole lot of upwelling, with her current low strength. The upwelling is normally only a factor for the very strong storms, which I don't think Jeanne would be expected to attain. There is some residual from cooler water from Frances, but that is fading as time goes by.
So, no, I doubt it would effect Jeanne's strength, but I wouldn't expect Jeanne to be much more than a Cat 2.
