What impact will Cindy have on ?Could Cindy push more to the east?All the conditions are there for a major hurricane.I would say everyone from the east coast of FL. to NO. should watch this very closely.No shear,very warm water.

Question, if the high that is over and east of Florida moves east, will that have an impact on ' movement? Will it move it further east?

If the 'High' moves eastward (away from Florida) then the dreaded cone will surely move eastward ensuring that East Florida will be in a higher risk area.

you can't count east coast fla out, but its looking less likely. most models are in "general agreement" to about 5days. entering south GOM

Looks like the center is more to the north of the forescated track right now...

That is true but all Florida residents must keep their guard up on this.

Hurricane Guy,I saw that myself.We all know how tracks can change very quickly.There are a couple of things that could happen that would bring it to the tip of south FL.And put the east coast of Fl. on the "bad"side of the storm.We just have to keep watching it,and see what happens.

Maybe I got this wrong when watching the local newscast last night, but I thought that it was said that the High was moving east, which was allowing Cindy to move further north and east of the original forecast track. If that is correct, than will the high keep moving east or is there any evidence out there that it will build back in later in the week allowing to be pushed further west?
Of course, this entire post is all contingent on whether I understood what was said correctly.

Well even if it were to come right up the state of FL seeing it still has hispanolia and cuba to go thru the chances of it being anything more then a CAT 1 is slim wouldn't you think?

At this point you are right about it being to far ahead if you keep in mind the 1-2-3 rule

The latest discussion did call for the high to move further east away from Fl by the end of the week...would pull closer correct?
All a matter of timing I guess...position of the high & where he is at that time.
Can't help but think of Jeanne...reading this board till power went out & the talking heads were still insisting on that right hand turn as I'm getting pounded & feeling my foundation vibrate.
Bears watching to say the least.

TPC track takes Cindy east of N.O Would that give it the time to make it to a 75 -80 mph cane ?

I just looked at the visible loops on the storm floater for ...maybe someone can answer this question: is the LLC further north of the first TS symbol or is it right where it's supposed to be? It looks to me as though it's further north than where it's supposed to be.
Thanks!

I got a bad feeling about this character.. I think he's going to move east, just by a gut feeling.

Redram,That really is not true,Andrew is just one of many that hit an Island,and then get very strong very quickly.It may weaken a little but the Islands are just not big enough to have a huge impact.And the water is so warm between the Islands and U.S. mainland that it has time to get much stronger before it gets here.
