looking at the available data... radar/sat/recon... think the mid level center.. around 11k to -18k feet that i have been watching is about almost over the top of the "surface" center... this could only mean intesification, IF the dry air does not preclude it from happening... but in the last 45mins on Key West Radar... there is a northern "wall" of banding around the coc showing up and getting that wrapping around appearence... right under those tall HOT Towers on IR sats. The next few hrs on radar will be very telling.
The last center fix was: A. Time of Center Fix: 18th day of the month at 23:36:00Z B. Center Fix Coordinates: 24°57'N 81°51'W (24.95N 81.85W) B. Center Fix Location: 27 miles (44 km) to the N (351°) from Key West, FL, USA.
and does anyone know why Kermit flew to and landed in New Orleans, LA. Is that the back-up site for KWBC/AOML/HRD operations, since Tampa may have been in the path? plan landed at the International Airport around 21:40:00Z.
Yep...when McDill is in the cone they move flight ops out of Tampa...they can stage a number of places, but NO was the closest location not in the path. JK
