Re: Franklin, the Little Storm that Could

Quote:

Looking at the WV loop, either the East coast trough is going to miss Franklin or the closed ULL over Florida will open up and become part of the East coast trough and then kick Franklin to the NE or something else could happen. Really tough to call.




Looks to me that the trough to the north will pass Frankie by...A high pressure system is anchored off the Georgia coast and the ULL in southwest FL is sliding off to the S-SW...I think this high will expand eastward and block Franklin from moving northeast & actually push the storm to the southeast and then south..It may be starting to happen now...I wouldn't be surprised if it makes a clockwise loop and starts heading southwest in a day or two..however, with the north-northwest flow aloft from the Georgia High...I'm not sure what kinda of system will be left..the storm will be badly sheared
