Area of Interest - Hurricane Rafael
Wed Oct 10 2012 07:01 PM

At 10/21Z, Invest 98L was beginning to consolidate a weak center near 9.5N 53.5W - movement is stil to the west northwest at about 12 knots. Sustained winds are close to 30 knots and central pressure is 1008MB. Some of the models project an almost instant change in direction to the northwest and north northwest, but they have been expecting that movement for the last few days under the anticipation that the system would begin to develop. A more northwesterly direction still seems likely, but not for a day or two. Southwesterly wind shear is on the increase over the islands so any development will be slow to occur. SSTs are still warm at 29C.
