The Upper Low (29N/84W) is about due N of the apparent circulation center now. Should be interesting to see if this will assist in wrapping this system up.

Looking at some other radar data, I suspect the overall motion is WNW. The Mid Level Circulation is moving out to the NW and that may be what you're seeing Ed.

Yes, that's a mid-level rotation on radar. Models are actually forecasting a bit of a NW motion initially then WNW then a northward turn into SE LA. I think there's a significantly better chance of landfall in MS or AL than over into SW LA or the upper TX coast. Should be Danielle tomorrow.

The LLC is actually moving westerly to southwesterly. It is the MLC that we see on radar moving with a northerly component. Overall motion has not changed. West to wnw it goes, be it very slowly. The ridge is going to be the key here. Will the trough pick it up, or not. Time will tell, and we are not guaranteed anything as of this writing.

I think TD 5's track by the NHC is right on. I do not see this track moving westward over time. As always with tropical systems it's always a good idea to keep an eye on it until it is well inland and dissipated.
