This is the tricky part of the uncertain track of Katrina.If she keeps moving this slow at 7 MPH am pretty sure the trough is going to arive and pick her up to the N/NE. If she decide to speed up then she will start to beat the trough to the north.




I believe you're right. It looks to me like she is speeding up and moving NW, but again you can't make anything of temporary jogs. The longer times goes by, the more likely a track east of N.O. is looking based upon what you indicate, though - which would be great news for N.O. but devastating for someone else.
