Thanx. BTW, what is the deal with a high pressure system over South Florida? I heard something about that yesterday. I remember in '99 that the high pressure system made Floyd take a sharp turn to the north.
It was a trough to the north that made Floyd turn to the North.
We have a high pressure system over us that has been keeping Frances moving W to WNW.
If the pressure system weakens, the storm moves further up the Florida SE coast, potentially all the way to Jacksonville.
If the pressure system gets stronger, it will move the track more W and into the tip of Florida (think Keys, Miami, Homestead)
If it weakens, depending on how much, it moves over SE Florida into the Gulf.
That is at least what local Miami weather is stating.
