Re: curvature of earth....and distance from equator

Positive news if she changes course drastically... she'd slough off the Cat 5 storm surge - at least, that which she garnered while she was sub 900mb.

That being said, she hasn't turned due N yet - which would almost be required before any NE turn.

There's a strong chance the 11AM will take the path more toward the east, but it's still too early to know for certain.
