Well, the eye of Hurricane Felix is now becomming very identifyable on the satellite this morning...as can be seen on the JSL and Rainbow Floater loops. JSL: http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/flt/t1/loop-jsl.html Rainbow: http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/flt/t1/loop-rb.html The radar loops from the French Antillies, which Mike C and company have posted under the main post on this thread paint an excellent radar representation of Felix as well this morning. I've been pulling for the ABC islands in hopes that they will not see Hurricane Forcewinds down there today. It is definately not another day in paradise down there, but from the looks of it, Aruba and the Dutch Antillies may stay just far enough south of Felix to escape sustained winds of hurricane force...although hurricane force wind gusts are a slight, realistic possibility in one or two squalls down there. Down range, the Nogaps has closed the gap on the rest of the model guidance, so the models may be approaching an agreement on a more specific path/direction of movement in the western Carribean. Unfortunately, this storm looks likeit is going to be another Hurricane for the history books. Otherwise, there is a low developing off the Georgia Coast this morning. Something to keep an eye on for potential slow development, as the more reliable models do carry some vorticity in the area off the SE US for the next few days. In the mean time, the models do not show this area of low pressure off of Georgia as a system that will have any significant affect on the ridging that is steering Felix on a w-wnw path. |
