Re: Irene Turning More Northwest Over the Bahamas

Withthe increase in forward speed from 9 to 12 mph, and the increase in strength to a cat 2, how will that effect the overall tract it will take? I know the stronger the storm the more it might shift north, and as I see what Mike said, it looks like it still has a wnw tract, but nhc says nw!! The stair steps its doing still has it going wnw. The slight increase in forward speed not be much but how far will it tract either way?
