Ed...is the cold front that is supposed to be coming down the feature near lower Mississippi and central Alabama or is it not showing it on this WV Loop?

WV Loop

If that's what you're talking about, you're right...I don't see it coming down as far unless it really speeds up. Looks like we might see the tail end of that one IF it's the cold front...but I could be wrong about it being the cold front.

Someone posted earlier the eye is moving erratically...it is not. Wilma's eye continues to have a pronounced oscilatory movement, and I have determined that the current oscillation of the center is around the outer eyewall (not much left of the center eyewall at this point).

Wilma looks to spin up rapidly once off the coast.

I believe that's the one, Mets/Mods, more aptly educated, any different perspective?

I have been following this loop for a few hours and it appears that the dry air entering the Gulf is eroding back to the NW in response to Wilma. Could it be that the hurricane may influence the progression of the front?

Just something I've been watching....

The storm was definitely being artistic with it's spriograph-like path upon landfall.

I realize that they points are so close to each other that without my usual legend, you may not be able to see the trend.

At any rate, doing things around the house today, so this is the extent of the graphic for now. I'll knockout the bearings at a later point.




*NOTE: there is a degree of uncertainty on the actual center being shown on radar. Based on the elongation and outer wind maxima, it's entirely possible that I'm about 15 pixels left of actual.

YMMV SPSFD

I think I was the one who said it was moving erratically, or at least moving erratically between E and W superimposed on a northward drift. I think we are talking about the same thing, only using different semantics. I'm still more focused on the inner eyewall, though that may not be appropriate for much longer. Most of the outer eyewall is over water and it appears to be maintaining itself quite well.

That would be Naples, precisely, 26.1 would be right around A&B Charter Fishing

Ok thanks the 12Z GDFL has it right off 26.1 heading to the coast NE so the 12Z GDFL has it going then just north of there so between there and 26.5 the new GDFL is.


Thanks.

I saw that. It has it exiting way to close to Melbourne for my taste. Is there a 12Z GFS. I'm not sure when all the models run. I'd be curious to see that one though.

That's the front graphic I had mentioned earlier in relation to the Buoys. I would have thought based on the front location that Buoy 42002 (25.17 N 94.42 W) would have registered a temperature drop by now. The ones farther north and northeast have already.
