The action moving to north east over Florida might be moving a liittle to quickly for Super Cell developement. Big thunder blasters for sure......Weatherchef

After a slow west drift this morning, now appears to be moving N-NW...I'm wondering if we're seeing a stair-step motion or a true change in direction from NW to N-NW?

Interesting topic in the 11:00 Advisory:
THE INITIAL MOTION ESTIMATE IS 320/12. UPPER-AIR DATA AT 06Z AND ESPECIALLY AT 12Z...ALONG WITH WATER VAPOR IMAGERY...INDICATE THE MID- TO UPPER-LEVEL LOW OVER THE EXTREME NORTHWESTERN GULF JUST
SOUTH OF LOUISIANA IS A LITTLE STRONGER THAN AND LARGER THAN ANY OF THE MODELS WERE INDICATING AT 00Z AND 06Z. THE MODEL DID NOT CAPTURE THIS FEATURE AT ALL...AND IT AND THE GFDN MODELS ARE THE
ONLY MODELS THAT TAKE TOWARD SOUTHEASTERN LOUISIANA. IT WOULD NOT SURPRISE ME IF THE 12Z MODELS SHIFT SLIGHTLY TO THE RIGHT
GIVEN THAT THE LOW IS STRONGER THAN PREVIOUSLY FORECAST...AND THAT THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AXIS HAS CONTINUED TO SHIFT NORTHWARD AND IS
NOW LOCATED ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN GEORGIA TO WESTERN TENNESSEE. THE OFFICIAL FORECAST IS JUST AN EXTENSION OF THE PREVIOUS TRACK.
The funny think about that is that at 11:00am, Dr. Steve Lyons said that the trough and the ridge are causing a squeeze on ...with the HP ridge building back in and the trough digging deeper, resulting in being the monkey in the middle. He did not believe that the environment further north in the Gulf were conducive to much more intensification because of this "squeeze play".
So, maybe the jogs to the north we are seeing is because the models didn't pick up on the strength of the trough (which is what I have said many times and got berated for! ) and it will trek a bit further east. That being said, I would definitely not expect any kind of dramatic turn to the right with . The only thing that will happen, perhaps, is to make the weather here a little worse than it's already forecasted to be.
Speaking of our weather: we had some squalls last night, mostly rain, but at about 9:00am, the winds had really picked up here and they woke me up!  We've had a lull the last couple of hours, but from looking at the radar, I expect that to change shortly.
So far, so good. I just pray for the people who will be taking the brunt of this hurricane that it will not reintensify too much. Also want you to know that our family has you in its thoughts and prayers.

98L is up on the wave halfway btw africa and the antilles. the vis shows a near-circular surface low with convection to the west, easterly shear keeping it on that side. it's near 10.5/37.5. shear and SSTs just above threshold should keep it's strengthening rate slow, but its development during the next 3 days is looking more likely.

Does this http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/DATA/RT/gmex-wv-loop.html make you think it's intensifying?

IMHO only,
the low and trough appear to be splattering by the outflow of and it will go further west than pensacola as it is winning the squeeze play. biloxi look out

Could you please tell me where you find images or data on the wave you metioned in your post?
Thank you...

... if someone asks if they should be driving down 95 set for O-town with all the family in tow.......I say.....wait for the Tornado Watch to expire.....
Why not come down I-95 and get through the nasty weather faster than staying in NC.?
