Re: Administrative Notes

The QuikSCAT missed 94L this morning. Visible satellite presentation shows a pretty healthy invest right now. By the way the convection is bending I'd say it's pretty evident there is some turning. The latest SHIP forecast is also calling for low shear values over the next 5 days.

There is a pretty significant weakness in the subtropical high which should result in a WNW to NW motion. With the deep convection evident on rainbow associated with the low you really have to use a deeper layer steering current. This is the 48 hour GFS 500mb ( link ).
