One thing I just noticed on some impromtu notes I had taken were the various coordinates from the 5am discussions. Yesterday's(9/22) had Jeanne located at 26.1N/70.5W Remember this track still had her off the coast of Florida. Today's(9/23) had her 26.0N/75.9W And was bringing in her into/right off the coast of Florida. Right now she's at 26.1N/70.8W, a lot closer to the 5AM forecast from yesterday versus today.

Well, that 30 mile adjustment to the east means a 200 mile difference in where it makes landfall.. before it was coming inland further at Ft Pierce area (again) and raking alot of the east coast with the "bad" side of the storm. The 11:00 pm shows none of the FL east coast getting the worst side of it. Yes, it's subject to change, but that shows how a "small" adjustment can make a huge difference thanks to the geographic angle of FL and Jeane's approach.

ROFLMFAO.
I actually tried to get a New Yawk custom plate, along those same lines, to read
"Pha-Que"
when you space it FAQ it reads more like "frequently asked questions" rather than the intended "Fa" "kew" get it?

Dr. Steve doesn't miss a trick does he?
Nope, he's Johnny-On-The-Spot....LOL
BTW...did you see MSNBC'S "Anatomy of a Hurricane"? They had Dr. Steve on and one of the other Severe Weather Experts on, just sitting there talking to each other...it was so ...so....scripted. It reminded me of the phone call between Al Gore/Joe Lieberman and Tom Daschle and Richard WhatEverHisNameIs during the 2000 Election Fiasco. Actually, though, Dr. Steve came across better in the sit-down situation than he does on TV. I just don't think he is a "TV Person" like John Hope was. Gosh I miss that man.

Normally I would have to put a contract out on someone for bad mouthing my dogs... (i.e., Phil and his reference to Cantore not liking Bassets) but tonight I'll take exception and give him the benefit of the doubt.... hehe
I'm sure Jim C would love my hound dawgs.....
will say this, the latest forecast is a little closer to where I forecasted Jeanne to hit... space coast (Titusville or areas north... and perhaps not south)... we'll see how much the track changes in the am...

Spaghetti model, but it's quite old and shouldn't be used as a reference point...

Everyone is reading the track as a straight line point to point. The track will actually be a gradual turn from W to NW between those points right along the Florida coastline, so it looks as if it doesn't come ashore until it hits the Cape Canaveral area. This is NOT true, a rounded track will show it makes landfall down near Jupiter to Stuart/PSL area. I wish the or or anyone could show those rounded turns instead of straight lines. It is especially important in this case as the storm is turning right at the coastline. Our local TV station actually showed this correctly. Does anyone see what I am saying?

Well, if you read the discussion, they didn't actually say HOW much faster, but if it's at 6mph now, I would think that they expect it to pick up to maybe 8-10 mph. I highly doubt that they would say an "increase in forward motion is expected" meaning 6.5 to 7mph. I'm looking for more than that...
I'm hungry, and debating on whether to have an apple or an apple.
OMG...I'm watching Jay Leno and he just did the most hilarious clip of a press conference the President had today where he asked, "Is anyone here from CBS?" and a guy raised his hand and then they show fake SS agents beating the crap out of him, then they pan back to W who's kinda looking on (I saw the PC, he was actually listening to a question) like, "Okay." It was hysterical.

Hey everyone from here in finally dried out Atlanta.....
First, can SOMEONE please send Mother Nature a jumbo strength Midol, cause she must be seriously PMS'sing.....
Second, thanks for posting that story on JC. I did not know all about his family and their health problems, and it's amazing that our local fish wrapper(Atlanta Journal-Constitution) hasn't picked up on that one.
Third, Glenn Burns from WSB-TV here in Atlanta showed the full track of from when it made landfall in Ala/Fla to the "carousel" like movement around the High Pressure to it's current status. He stated that he's never seen anything like it before and hopes to not see anything like it again.
Finally, the "Hurricane Checklist" is hilarious as well as the new license plate for Florida. Although I did see the checklist on Neal Boortz' website a couple of weeks ago....

Have any of you guys in SE Fla noticed how skinny our weathermen are getting?
seriously. They all look thinner...Brian Norcross, Roland Stedham, Bill Camall, Bob Soaper all of em look frail to me.
(I know I spelled their names wrong but you know who I am talking about at least)

It's the Jackie Johnson effect. Everyone wanted skinnier Weather models, they didn't realize they were speaking of the women only. Have you seen the porn star (women) they have on in the AM.

Here's some humor: I turned 39 today (for the first time) and now I can officially say that I have arthritis. 
Some more: at my oldest son's game last weekend, the "waterboy" who was carrying the 2-ton water sprayers that I use to spray down the kids (and coaches as needed) dropped the doggone thing on my toe! OUCH! However, it didn't really hurt until later on......
While watching the Miss USA pageant I decided to put my old modeling moves into play...and while twirling around the kitchen like an elephant, I missed my mark (by like a 1/2 mile) and promptly stubbed aforementioned toe into the refrigerator.
Now I know why my father didn't name me after his sister:

Recon is airborne. About an hour ETA to Jeanne. Should be there around 05-06Z.
They are tasked with a 0600Z center fix.
