Re: Tropical Storm Gustav Slowly Moving WSW

He's doing much better now that he changed directions. Suppose that gave him a new perspective as well as a lease on life. He has had convection blowing up near his center and he moves off in the direction of warmer water.

Not sure how this will change the tracks much except for timing.

He really was blocked from going w or wnw by dry air that had filled in between cuba and Haiti.. he was trapped there, the only real way out was to go WSW. He has a chance now to organize more.

But he has to really build up a center as he had barely formed when he hit Haiti and he does not handle land as well as Fay did.

Keep watching, he's fighting tonight.

Curious on next run of tracks.

And, blown away by how little attention 95 is getting in all of the melodrama on what Gustav could be considering the models bend 95 back towards the states and where Gustav is small, 95 seems bigger.
