Re: 200mb Level Winds near Dolly

Explain the flight level wind maps for all of us please...

Note they are getting tons of data, especially from the JET so tomorrow's models (or late tonight?) should be the best yet.

A real consolidation around a center is going on. Shape is rounder, signs of outflow and if you cover the ULL on your screen and just look at Dolly (the ULL is distracting) you get a real feel for where she is at.

Great radar, this loop is good... you can see blow ups.

Looking forward to more accuracy in the 11pm discussion and advisory.
