re: Hurricane Irma - Spinning Down

Thanks to skysummit over at stormcastforums for the image.



You'll note the yellows up toward the Carolinas in the image. That's the trough expected to turn Irma back to the east. In this run, Irma misses the trough and keeps running more west. The caveat is there's a lot of uncertainty in the placement, strength, and timing of that trough.
