Re: Watching the Wave Near Puerto Rico

This storm has always been about the healthy mid and upper level development with weak reflection at the surface. That could explain why the mountians are not beating Fay up more. Mid level (500mb) heights fluctuate around 18,000 ft. and unless we're in Nepal that won't be an issue. Intensity will have a direct correlation with time over open water which wil be determined by her eventual track. Everyone needs to watch this.
