elongation westerly

looking at the system as a whole, you can expect a more westerly component, if the shape of the entire system is a clue to it's direction, which is usually the case, isn't it?

look for a sharper turn west that one might have realized...

the further south...the bigger the danger to all residents that might be affected in the GOM
