Looks like may be having a few problems this evening. He's coughed up some outflow boundaries to the NE and NW, whice is not a good sign for significant development. Once this storm begins to slow down, it should start to consolidate some more.

Charley is now experiencing northeasterly shear and outflow boundaries are racing away from the storm.
still not that well organized

Agree with Anon - the last frame of this loop seems to show the moving to NNE. If you hold your cursor over the ending position, it does seem to be an actual movement and not an illusion caused by cloud movement. Maybe just a temporary motion, who knows

Looks like the majority of west vector is out of Bonnie's current track and she is now "feeling" the 1st trough...and behaving accordingly. After getting knocked down this morning, the shear is now relaxing, and the satellite presentation is really improving over the last few hours. The next 12 hours are going to be very telling. If the shear is relaxing as much as I think it is, some significant strengthening is about to get underway, as per the , which is doing a very good job with this system. (New Vortex as I type this, winds down, but pressure down to 1004 mb too...).
Things are about to get pretty busy here in the next few hours at my location...I'll be happy to answer as many questions as I can, but will probably limit my commentary to answering questions as time allows...I probably won't have time to do summary posts.
If there is anything I can do to help anyone out, just let me know.

I agree ...Here we go on both systems. The outflow boundaries mentioned earlier for are actually a good thing. these originated from the preceeding band of thunderstorms that may have been inhibiting development of a true . look for the to really improve with both systems soon.
As for the tracks...Will bonnie go north for a while before turning NE??? if so, Mobile to Destin. if not, Destin to Appalachi.
Charley continues a steady pace to the WNW. He will be a major force in the central gulf in a few days.

ok.. bear with me here please as I think its interesting to see what we thought TD2 would do back when.. as I think there are similarities. Also..outflow boundaries are bad but occur for different reasons and can be a sign either way that something is going on..
they say hindsight is 2020 well use it to see what was wrong and what is going on now..
remember the track from TD2 and everyone thought it would cut up across cuba somewhere similar to where looks to be doing now
so is sticking to the old plan or current NOAA plan?
(the quiet time is over...stick to the topic)

not sure 100% what is going on but it has lifted and cleared South America and that was I believe inhibiting her. When you have a system so large and the bottom half can't form but the northern part is out of control.. its not good.
some ways he looks better, some
where are the planes, what are they saying?

maybe now we will dispense with the dissipating theories and suppositions and get to the real crux of the matter.
appreciate the post by Jason Kelly..
hopefully Bonnie won't get too nasty. However, anyone who knows the gulf of Mexico storms, and the tight eye of this one...and taking into consideration all that has been said...
maybe stronger than a cat 2 is possible?

>>> maybe stronger than a cat 2 is possible?

I thank we need to get serious (did I just say that). Geez the Rabbit dissipates every system and you send them toward Mobile as CAT Vs. I suppose it is entirely possible, given the right circumstances and the temp of the Gulf, strengthening above a II is possible. Lets hope not. Jason's wearing the bullseye so far, so we should probably listen to him. Whatever happens, though, this is starting to get serious...

I'm not one to make everyone nervous...just aware. BY NO MEANS, living on a trawler at Dog River, in Mobile Bay, am I hoping this thing hits Mobile as anything more than a nasty 40 mph squall. However, since I am in a vulnerable position, I don't have a lot of time to decide to head up the river, or ride it out. Hence, my feelings that as long as any scenario is possible, plan for the worst, and hope for the best. My gut feeling is that, yes, it is quite possible the storm could explode to a cat 3, but was hoping for the "experts" to validate my worst nightmarish possiblities.
time will tell......
Perhaps I will be positioned inland a few miles.....on top of an oak tree. we shall see....

Looks like Bonnie has fluctuated but in the most recent pics and obs, seems to be coming back and basically stationary or moving Nward.
