Latest loop suggest's it heading wsw

It's bizarre, isn't it? What could possibly be causing it to move in that direction? It makes no sense.

I'm going to make a call - Irma won't make landfall in Florida at all, forecast is completely wrong.

Recon just found 930mb. She's dropping again.

Could be friction-energy 'holding' Irma in place along the Cuban coastline, I was expecting the turn to have started occurring at least 3 hours ago.

makes sense - convection looks to be strengthening around all sides of the eyewall now -

It could be the trough interaction to the north or sheer to the NW looking at the loop.

radar is strange - almost looks like it stalled, and progressing directly north now - in reality though just the eyewall changes I suspect as she drifts west still .. 

[Allseasons-Si]

doesn't he mean rising!

Die! die! die! irma.

Irma is re-curving back wsw into Cuba on the latest,La habana could be affected with the latest path.

infact it looks to have stalled quiet a bit,who knows what track she will take,place your bets.
