Re: Katrina's Forecast Track Shifts West, Northern Gulf Needs to Watch

The eye is starting to show up on IR. Go click the radar overlay and you can see the orange area within the red matches up with the eye.

From that loop you can throw on the NHC track overlay, and it is clear that the system is now south of the projected path.
I'm watching the banding to the north starting to join up with the storm itself. It is starting to take on a very symetric appearence. This isn't good news since it means the system is becoming better defined and potentially more powerful.
