Hi.... It may say new subscriber to the left, but I just forgot my old user name and pass. I haven't been here for two years since moving from Delray Bch to Wisconsin. I think I used to be known as Red Dawg.....maybe....???
Been lurking lots this season, though.....
I'm gonna step out on a limb since I see everyones forecasts of landfall moving further and further west along the gulf coast.
I just don't see it. and some of the right-side outlying models are starting to back me up.
Sure the cat 4 & 5 can bull its way through as we've been seeing, but, I think, once the sheer kicks in will become more and more suseptible to steering influences.
Ultimately, I see the big hook coming thats gonna whip him back towards the peninsula...... and a landfall at about Cedar Key to Clearwater.
Just my hunch based on my observations<-worth 2 centavos

If it does go to the Yucatan I think it will jet away from it , just like it did with Jam.

Yes, another question. looks like he is pushing the first trof in the gulf to the north somewhat while the second trof is getting very close to the Texas coast. What happens when the two trofs back into each other?

Thanks Tikibar, I hope you are right. The waiting is almost as bad as riding them out. I

Just made the flying run to N. AL to pick up some backup computer systems for use during ...just settling in and starting the forecast process.
Ivan looks on track for my earlier ideas from last week, but the forecast is still far from certain. I am having real problems buying the further west tracks (Biloxi Westward), but we will have to see where the NW to N turn begins to get a good handle on it. To my eye, it still looks like a Panhandle storm, but we are now in await and see mode.
Folks here are flooding their home improvement stores and grocery stores just in case, and the town is buzzing with anticpation.
A note: as you might imagine it is about to get really busy here...I will post and respond as I have time...but please don't be offended if you ask me a question and you don't get an answer.

Ivan is still on a West path. Slight very Slight North but not gaining much latitude at all.
Is there a big curve in 's future? Well at this rate it will take until mid week to know for sure.

JK,
Good to have a real met on line...
Agree with you on the panhandle, but 's sure tracking west...he'll probably still go over Coobah, although even that's a bit doubtful now.
How far is PCB from Biloxi? Is it less than 100 miles?
Just make sure the Spinacker is still standing when is all said and done, 'k?

We are a bit over 100 miles away, to say the least.
Yes, he is moving a good bit west, but all the data that I can lay my hands on says that it shouldn't last a whole lot longer...we'll see.

I believe there's a good 200 miles or so between PCB and Biloxi.

Well, 3 people in a row asking you the same thing.
I think that should tell you that we really pay attention to what you say.
