Re: Earl Approaching the Leeward Islands

Please remember. NHC directions of movement are averaged over a 6 hour period.
A quick turn in any direction will not show up for several hours. e.g. Hurricane Charley 2004

Use your eyes first and Advisories second in a case of whether the storm has jogged a bit off course... especially if you are in the path of the storm.
