Did she take a left hook over the north end of Cat Island, or is it just the framing?

Frances is down to 120 mph with a pressure of 954 millibars--i dont think this is going to reintensify
Frances appears to be undergoing some heavy southwesterly wind shear that is only getting stronger, and may even work to push the storm north

I need a few more new frames. She had been running east of the islands. Now she is over Cat Island, which would indicate a very slight westward jog.
On your loop, look at the outer eastern edge. From the 0345 shot to the 0645 shot it moves more west than north. In fact until I see more frames I would call it a due west move.
The eye is still on the questionable side. But she is over land.

we cant call it anything yet cause if you think about it,,,last frame was at 1145pm now 245am... recon had it at 24.7N and 75.7 near 2am and from 11pm - 2am it went .3 N and .4 w. so that is NW unless in last hour it went W,,then its a wobble, but hey, not saying it wont drift w or wnw now.

well... here's to hoping falls apart... though has up now... suspect an upgrade at 5am
Perhaps too many little islands disrupting the windfield a tad? or perhaps the storm will get it's act together and regain it's lost power.
Night all,

John, that's a really good link from LSU. The yellow is indicating cloud temperatures in the minus 70-75degree range.
The orange, what we are seeing now, minus 75-80 degrees.
Should we see red that would be in the minus80-85 degree range.
These temps are the estimated cloud top temps, and indicate that the clouds are growing higher. In other words, she could be intensifying, especially if the oranges and reds form a circle around the "eye" area.

Dry/subsiding air appears to be near the center on the western side. Circulation being squeezed somewhat, and elongating E/W. Hopefully for Florida residents, this won't be just a temporary situation, and the storm will continue to disorganize and weaken. Rather deal with a cat 2 than a cat 4.

What does what mean?
Gee I wish you were registered. I could PM you.
Try this loop of Miami radar, and look at the north and/ or westward motion.
