Re: Hurricane Ophelia Sitting off East Central Florida Still Stationary

I agree it would be west and then north as the high would no longer be above it. I am definited not a met, just an observer. However, the western edge does appear to be breaking down quickly.




On IR that's definately true right now, but not on radar. I suspect it might be diurnal, because it happened last night too. Might also be interaction with land? Who knows with this storm. It still does not appear to be going anywhere anytime soon.
