You too ;-)

Off topic

Sandy has really sped up. Getting caught in the upper flow. Looks like it will beat high tide in....

Approaching record surge already at places along the shore.

You must be looking at old data, because it made a turn early this morning and has turned more since then, eye is heading directly as predicted at southern NJ coast.

I have looked at all the charts. Ultimately, NOAA is the source of most weather radar. Regardless, none of them are posted later than 11:00 AM Monday, and all show the storm significantly (180 km) east of where predicted. No evidence whatsoever of a left turn yet.

I think the poster has realized his error...and is now in hiding.

As my first post stated...Piers in a great forecaster....but this was a very reckless forecast. He is an AWESOME anti-AGW source...and routinely ROCKS long-range forecasts for climate. His track record against the government agencies in the US AND Europe is unmatched.

However, you cannot apply his techniques to short range forecasts. I hope this bust hasn't hurt his credibility. A 100 atta-boys get wiped out by one uh-oh....

No evidence whatsoever of a left turn yet.

Have a look at Wunderground's interactive map. Click the Satellite option, adjust the opacity down a bit, and press the Animate button. The storm looks to be following right along slightly to the north of the predicted track. I'd rather not be in Philadelphia.

Ok...either you are a troll...or ignorant. Either way...I can't help you. You can't fix stupid.

The 5 PM forecast from SATURDAY for today is within 20 miles. It's exactly where it was forecasted on LAST FRIDAY.

I'll get back to you in 6 hours when it makes landfall...within 20 miles of the forecast spot from 4 days ago. Then PERHAPS you will concede it has turned left. But then again...perhaps not.

Ummm... She has been turning left since 2pm Sunday (for 24 hours now). From 8am to 2pm SUN, she traveled at about 45 degree East of true North. The next four waypoints on the NOAA maps have her traveling at about 30 degrees East of North (from 2pm to 8pm SUN), 15 degrees East of North (from 8pm to 2am SUN), and then 5 degrees WEST of true north (from 2am until 8am this morning). That's turning left for 24 straight hours.

(From 2am until 8am SUN her path was trending towards the right... but it changed.)

Don’t bother. If this poster can’t look at the satellite image I posted and see it moving NW...or look at the intellicast link and see the turn...or read the NHC advisories that specifically STATE the direction has shifted: They are beyond help. They are either a troll (which is really sick considering what is going on) or have mental issues.

I guess you are not found of scientific reasoning and analysis. The storm has yet to turn and will probably not:

Yeah, I think scientific reasoning and analysis sucks. I much prefer witchcraft and divining.

Oh wait! My witchcraft and divining beat all your scientific reasoning and analysis!
