I think forward speed is inhibiting further organization especially. However I thought a wsw motion would commence soon but llc went slightly n of due west now @15.7 n 45.2 w 1245z. Great post blizz let's get this to a cane turnin nw just ne of hispanola then its showtime

The 12Z GFS Ensembles seem to be doing that. Still a heck a of lot of ground or should I say ocean to cover before then.

Seems like Issac to be,convection starting to fire up near the center,with a distinct low level center forming as of this hour. Could we see a TD or even TS Issac by the 5 or 11pm advisory today. winds at 30mph interestingly enough,last year when Irene came through as a strong TS vermont and NH and Maine got alot of wind and flooding rains..and still are recovering after that fiasco,We lost power for three days here in Maine...A whole lot of warm water or should I say SST's are very toasty..so who knows how big Issac could get if the East Coast track verifies re the SST's. Alot of model watching from here on out.

I know everyone's initial, visceral reaction is to want to see this named, and subsequently a central atlantic tempest yesterday, but I'm hioping that it waits to get its act together.

This thing goes to town east of the islands, and it has about as much chance of making it to the US, as Kev does of getting carded at the next gtg in October.

Keep this bad Larry as free of the influence of the upper air currents as possible, while east of those islands.

Notice that even in that pants-tent, optimal weenie-run, they still all recurve before reaching sne....save for one that tries to pull a Bob, which would still blow for 90% of us.

I'd rather pull for a se US lf.

So far it looks like a recurve to me but anything can happen at this point. We should know more in 72-96 hours. I think you're right in that a betting man would put some money down on the SE (inc. Florida).

Yup

If this is a threat, its to the Caribbean and Gulf. Looks as though the NAO is trending towards neutral in the upcoming days. Flow is looking more zonal across the conus. The Alt ridge also looks to build W, preventing any curve to the N until at least Hispaniola.

Still on course with my call. System just became a TD as well so development has been slow as expected. I think this system flirts with Hispaniola/Cuba before curving to the N and impacting the gulf coast somewhere. Will need to monitor the Atl ridging to see when it breaks down.

Looks very good this morning on the vis..Close to a TS already..Should see some decent intensification today. The sooner it gets stronger the more north it goes..so we can start ruling out those carib. calls

I'm not so sure intensification will have much of an impact on track if the Atl Ridge holds strong.

Don't post anything storm related in the Isaac thread on the main page. If you're not one of the tropical officienado's they delete everything even when it's directly related to the outcome of the storm.

Good they should. I read that thread this morning when I got up and it was wonderful.
