Re: Hurricane Irene Moving Away from Hispaniola

Help me to uderstand please. If she weakens from the mountains and you stated a more westerly, does that mean it will take longer for her to turn to the NW?





The storm actually went a bit right (north) of the 5AM track, this increases the chance it will stay further east.

I really don't see any reason it would get closer to Florida than about 150 miles east.

Irene is pulling away from Hispaniola now.
