G-IV is a gulfstream jet.....high alt flights....most of time around hurricanes....

Color me ridge impaired. On this link, is the orange band the ridge? Will that keep Irene moving out to sea? It looks like it's breaking down on the eastern edge. ??

Note that in that latest vortex message, maximum surface winds are estimated at 65 kt, which is hurricane force. The might not upgrade based on that fact, but there's a chance.
Glad to see the 80 nm measurement was an error; that just didn't make sense.

I believe this is why JB argued for a NC or East Coast hit- this ridge will either force Irene westward onto shore- or- it can very well ease its movement-or stop it dead in its tracks depending how strong the ridge will hold- or even force Irene to the NE- following the UKMET model.

Something interesting in the 11 am package: Jacksonville shows up on the probability table with a small (I think 2%) chance of the eye passing within 65 nm within 72 hours. However, in the experimental wind probability product, Jacksonville is not listed with regards to any winds - 34 kt or higher.
This doesn't mean much, because the 2% odds of a 65 nm "brush" might not translate into a 2% chance of getting 34 kt winds, or the two products might be based on different computer output. But I find it interesting and wonder which of those two possibilities, or if something else, accounts for that.

Those are max flight level winds. Est max surface winds 60kt.
Recon data shows a small increase since the 11am advisory (about 55kt). Still not hurricane strength.

Well, just to spite me for posting, I suppose, I'm just seeing latest recon msg shows 65kt...which nudges just up to hurricane strength.

1012 MB LOW HAS DEVELOPED FROM THE TROPICAL WAVE PREVIOUSLY
ALONG 39W. THE BROAD CENTER OF THE LOW IS NEAR 11N41W AND IS
MOVING WNW 10-15. THIS IS A COMPLEX DISTURBANCE WITH A LOW/MID-
LEVEL CENTER SEEN ON VISIBLE SATELLITE NEAR 12N42W WITH ANOTHER
LOBE OF ENERGY ROTATING AROUND THE E SIDE NEAR 12N39W. SURFACE
OBSERVATIONS INDICATE A LARGE CLOSED CIRCULATION WITH BUOYS
REPORTING WINDS OF 20-25 KT. THE LOW HAS FAVORABLE CONDITIONS
FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT WITH WARM WATER NEAR 83F... LIGHT
SHEAR... AND IT SEEMS TO BE FAR ENOUGH SOUTH TO AVOID
SIGNIFICANT DRY AIR IN THE MID-LEVELS. THERE IS SOME EVIDENCE
OF BANDING THOUGH CONVECTION HAS FADED A BIT THIS AFTERNOON.
ISOLATED MODERATE FROM 10N-13N BETWEEN 40W-45W.
That is really intresting got any ideals one it mets.
