I notice they have the high still squarely over FL. Didn't someone say it was eroding a little more than anticipated?

These aren't reall "bands" the first of such is down around the keys, but clearly the moisture associated with has traversed up into the Tampa area and the showers are moving in association with the general SE flow around

Hey, if it hits here..I've got insurance. Just got back from Nashville, delivering a Mercedes...and now I gotta do something with this boat. Here's what I'll do...double line the boat on all sides....throw some more bumpers on the sides....and come back to see what's left. My neighbor and his wife took off up the Mobile River about 20 miles...and are gonna tie up to some cypress trees and all..then abandon ship..and see if it is still there...after comes calling.
If it hits Mobile as a cat 4-5....nothing I do to prepare will help...the storm surge would be 20'...and that with the winds..oh well...
just looking at the loops.....just slightly north of nw...definitely not a trend to nnw...but once it starts heading due north...anyone west of that is safe...

Has J. Cantore repositioned himself to get right in the path yet? I know he had to have split from down south.

Just out of curiousity, since you've been thru a III...if hits to your East (lets say for arguments' sake, PCB) as a III or IV, how bad would it be for your boat? I know a hit to your west could be catastrophic.
Stay safe.

Think its very probable that they will change the heading to NNW at 5 and the discussion should be very interesting .. depending on who is writing it.
Aren't really any words on how this is playing out live and hoping to read good discussion tonight here when everyone gets done with work and is up to speed and sure that what looks to be doing isn't a short term trend.
No words.. really.
None at all. Not by me.
And... btw ... Stewart doesn't bring things up for no reason. He is one of the best there is and if he brings it up it is for one very good reason. He isn't one to speculate. Imply yeah.. speculate no.

He's in Panama City (he just came on ). They commented that he looks like he'll be in the path of the storm.... so, I guess he's where he wants to be...

This attachment shows accuwx predicted path contrasted with . Quite a bit of disagreement...

Mobile is probably safe, but not completely out of the woods. has wobbled NNW the last hour or two, but should begin moving NW again soon. As Rick on Boat said, once it starts moving due north (not wobbles, but extended movement) if you are west of there you are safe.
That said, again I pose the question...Could the new developing depression pump up the ridge east of and force him back west?

Looks like Mr Jason Kelley was right (as usual ) The latest recon fix has the pressure back down to 912mb (not an extrapolated estimate either. is definitely not weakening.
Also, notice that the 1747Z recon fix had the center at 20.53N, 84.41W.....this latest fix is at 21.03N, 84.44W.....a north movement of 10 minutes, with just a 3 minute westward motion. is moving NNW-N.

Same path, just delayed NE turn. I could see that happening for sure.
I don't think they will change the movement to NNW based on just a couple of hours of movement. They usually go with 6-9 hour trends. In that time frame, it is solidly NW.

You need to click on the "attachment" located below the header. accuwx stuff is proprietary, so I dare not post the image here (plus it eats up bandwidth).
