I heard Franklin will be named a depression soon and could be going west so does this mean it could affect places like the Bahamas, Florida?
Where did you hear this?

The track seems to be shifting more northward. Could the storm possibly impact the central and upper Texas gulf coast if the high pressure doesn't build to the west?

Well anything is possible but the latest modles from the show it hitting as far north as the upper teas area.So as of now anything in the cone is fair game and the cone can change at 5am one way or the other but the next 3 days look pretty much on target.

Just doing a little speculating before I hit the hay...At first glance the early stage of the current run of the appear to shift the track a tad further north. Should be interesting in the morning to see whether the end result of the current model is any further north (just guessing, but maybe just southwest of Houston?). Perhaps even closer to western LA if the model takes it north of Jamaica.

Always fun to be devils advocate and play the watch every millimeter move one single computer model makes game.

I'm seeing dropsonde HDOBs from one of the NOAA planes. Appears that they are conducting pre-storm enviroment drops. As the lastest dropsonde lat/ longs, are ahead of Emily.
Data may be used in the 12Z models. My speculation there

Not necessarily faster. But she is stronger.
NHC has classified Emily a CAT 4, as of the latest Advisory.
Latest pressure fall, per hour, is slower than it was earlier today/ last night.
Slower pressure drops don't always mean the storm is leveling off. It's more of a trend than anything.
NHC was issuing information faster than I could post.~danielw

Not yet, considering the convection is growing around the eye, not decreasing.

Man oh man, nothing ceases at amaze me at this point. I mean the rapid strengthening that and now Emily have undergone is just something to watch. Let's hope Emily stays south, but I am beginning to get the feeling that Emily might make a US landfall......Texas really needs to watch and I don't think Louisiana is out of the woods yet either.

I'm with you. I don't feel comfortable with this one until she's made landfall. Or as some of the models are indicating...lost her spin.
Okay, Recon has departed the storm and next Vortex is due at 12Z or 8AM EDT. Unless the NOAA plane is tasked with fixes while the USAFR isn't flying.
NOAA planes pulled double duty with . They could do it again with Emily.

Aren't the recon flights dropping drop sondes in the area to help determine the future environment?
