TROPICAL STORM ISAAC Discussion Thread #13

It almost seems as though the mid-level center separated from the low-level center, being shunted to the SW while the LLC continues NW. From the look of things we may see a rather large eye form once convection gets going again. The LLC looks to have been moving NW all along, it was hard to tell with the MLC masking that motion.

Oh absolutely- we're now at the point of no return for a mandatory evacuation call. No way would folks get out in time.

It wouldn't be needed now, but what happens if this thing explodes overnight and tomorrow. Nobody wants that to happen, but it's still possible...

Mickey check your PM, but give me a moment........lol.

The eye is clearing out for sure. The other odd thing is that he's very close to his 00Z plot already.

and it would be the same speed once it makes it way down to the surface?
