Staring at Water Vapor Loop imagery - it seems the ULL east of Florida is nudging towards the west ever so slowly and also seems to be even dropping a little south. Could this feature already be having an impact on the storm? Could this be why Dean is slowing down? I always tell folks (rightly or wrongly) it's simple physics - it's harder for storms to turn the faster they are moving. Not saying the storm will turn, just trying (like everyone else) to understand the dynamics of the ULL and how it might interact with Dean.
