.....ISABEL IS MOVING TOWARD THE WEST OR 280 DEGREES AT 8 KNOTS AROUND THE PERIPHERY OF A STRONG DEEP-LAYER ANTICYCLONE. THIS PATTERN IS EXPECTED TO STEER THE HURRICANE TOWARD THE WEST WITH A GRADUAL TURN TO THE WEST-NORTHWEST AS INDICATED IN THE OFFICIAL FORECAST.
IT APPEARS THAT THE TROUGH WHICH IS CURRENTLY ERODING THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE RIDGE WILL WEAKEN AND THE HIGH WILL EXPAND WESTWARD. THIS EXPANSION OF THE RIDGE WILL CONTROL HOW CLOSE ISABEL APPROACHES THE U.S EAST COAST.....
Seems like I heard this once before but can't put a finger on the source.
Take Care,
