Well, mircowave analysis indicated that there was some strong thunderstorms just to the southeast of the LLC firing up. So maybe the center is reorganizing there.

I'll be dang'd if Franklin does not look like it is looping. Now we will see if it can survive.

I think Pedro is onto something here.....it does appear to be drifting to the SSW.
It looks like a big curve - it is still going S but now it is going E as well. It is moving SE now. And the high level circulation is still moving in tandem with the low level circulation - their relative positions appear to be unchanged.

I believe we got some outerband storms from some of Franklins former self, this afternoon in Central Fla. It was very noisy, wet, and squally. Franklin could become formidable if he manages to loop and turn back toward us- like Gordon did.....( I bet you thought I was going to say Jeanne. Well, I am kind of loopy tonight, thinking about some of the information out there about a south Florida Storm this year. Our temperature dropped from high 90's to currently 75 degrees. So Franklin's energy is going some place!!!!!

It is a little more then that. The wife and me just ran a few errands on the Southside of Lakeland and every other street is flooded. I put my "skipper" hat on. I thought I was in Venice......Italy!

Doesn't look SE now Marge, take a look at the latest loop. If he bottoms out near the Bahamas again and once the high moves over to the north and NE, conditions might be good for him mto re-fire. Who knows.

I noticed by reading the Archives, that Jeanne went all the way to 69 Latitude before making her loop back towards Florida. So our little Franklin could still do the loop thing.
I think that should be 69 longitude~danielw

Still looks like a SE movement to me. It is a little easier to follow if you look at the upper level circulation.

It looked like Gert was starting to get its act togerther as it made landfall. If it had stayed over water for another day it could have become a strong TS or minimal hurricane.
I seem to believe that Frankliin is finished, barring something major happening.
I wouldnt be surprised if the wave in the far eastern atlantic amounts to something

I agree Margie, I don't see the westward motion, looks southeastward to me, perhaps the appearance of a west motion is an illusion created by the darkness.
|
Maybe maybe not

As Yoga would say IT ANI'T OVER TILL IT'S OVER. But do think Franklin is dying and winds are at 40 to 45mph at 11 .

I beg to differ. If you look at the visible sat from goes floater, the low level circulation is moving s/sw while the concentration of storms are moving se.

New advisory in, winds down to 45, moving SSW at 3 mph. Hopefully, it resumes its ENE movement as is forecast tomorrow.
