The 18Z AVN run is quite ominious for Texas and Louisiana. It will be interesting if the 00Z run is similiar...

Looking at the most recent (and very dim) visible at 2245Z, is that the eye that I see right over Cuba or a shadow?
Is it me, or has Isidore stalled? Or is it just a wobble, maybe because its over land? The Key West radar and IR show some kind of change.

I don't think there's any way that will happen. I feel we are kind of in the middle of where the possible landfall will be. It will either be in Mexico, which is my first pick,or somewhere east of LA. I think there is a "wall" set up that will protect us here in Texas,especially the upper Texas coast.

I'm not going to sweat the system east of the Islands. Upper-level analyses show two humongous troughs west of it...if it develops east of 60W, I think it's unrealistic to expect it to either survive the shear or otherwise avoid turning north. This is not the time of year for storms to make it to the East Coast from the deep Atlantic.
Of course, if it develops in the Caribbean, that's another story.

Per it is drifting Northwestward and should resume its WNW movement in a few hours. I see what you guys are talking about though on the Key West Radar

That is what I thought I was seeing, sort of a stall/wobble/drift NW. Did not say it had changed direction based on just a couple of frames. And the radar is iffy, since its right on the edge of what it can "see" and what it is "seeing" is way above sea level at that range. Anybody know more or less how high in this case? Any easy formula to figure that out? And how much does it skew what we're seeing?
Good to know I wasn't seeing things though :-) I've been staring at these loops about 18 hours a day.

Well, first off, excellent website and forum. I've lurked often over the last two years or so, and now actually have some time to post.
Given our local TV news anchors around here, they are all parroting the official tracks and aren't offering any real insight or guesses of their own. They show Izzy scooting through the "gap" of Cuba and then arcing low and over the Yucatan and heading into the lower GOMEX or BoC. They also show it possibly going into Cat 3 or 4 status around then too. Ooof.
I just hope that holds true and doesn't come my way! Even better, I hope it builds up over water, blows itself out over water, and washes ashore wherever as just a simple rainstorm. Too much to wish for, I know, but still....

The website http://smn.cna.gob.mx/radares/radares.html has a link to the Cancun radar.
You can not loop it but is does have a nice still image.
The eye of Isidore is just moving off the Cuban coast into the Gulf.
