Re: Dean Headed to Yucatan, Watching System East of Bahamas

I updated the main article, but I'm reposting it here too. With more analysis and some input from Ed, here's what looks good so far.

The system (92L) is roughly 2260 miles east southeast of Central Florida, and the center is near 22.5N, 56.0W. Movement is west northwest at 17MPH, and should continue that and potentially trend more westward (based on the sketchy initial model runs), forward speed may increase up to 21-23MPH.

If it were to affect the US, the current thinking is that it would be approaching around Friday or Saturday.




Not to pick nits...but I am measuring about 1450 NM from Savannah. I think 2260 miles may be a a bad measurement for 56w/22.5N.
