It appears that NHC hopes to schedule a mission out of St. Croix, U.S.V.I. on Tuesday evening. "SUCCEEDING DAY OUTLOOK: POSSIBLE NOAA G-IV SURVEILLANCE MISSION OUT OF TISX AROUND CENTRAL ATLANTIC SYSTEM FOR 04/0000Z IF IT DEVELOPS." The system is moving so fast to the west northwest (indeed at about 285 degrees) that finding a center is indeed a challenge. At 19Z a rough centerpoint location for the cyclone was 13.0N 42.8W - that translates to a forward speed of about 25mph. One short comment: Mike is the one that has kept the site going - the rest of us are just here to lend a hand. Now I'll put on my 'stern Mod' hat and request that we stay on topic. With a good likelyhood that the fast forward motion will continue for a few days, intensification is going to be difficult to achieve. That fact alone is probably going to motivate track guidance adjustments to the left. ED |
