Re: Tropical Storm Irene Forms from TD#9, No Threat to Land

Interesting, the new 18Z BAM, NHCA98E, & LBAR runs all keep the storm more on a W-NW heading and then sharply break west during the latter time periods. These models must be picking up on the Atlantic Ridge building north of the storm. The ridge axis is progged to move north to central FL peninsula by thursday and JAX by sunday. The general troughiness that has persisted over the SE appears to be lifting north or northeast and being replaced by higher pressure.
