The
Tropical Weather Outlook
At
5 am EDT, TS Isaac was located near 16.1N 70.0W moving W at 15 mph.
This position is about 1100 miles E of Roatan. Maximum sustained
winds were 45 mph. Minimum central pressure was 1000 mb. The
approximate Closest Point of Approach (CPA) is located near 23.7N,
80.6W or about 626.9 miles (1008.9 km) from Roatan. The estimated
time of when the center of the storm will be at that location is
sometime Sunday, August 26, 2012, provided Isaac follows the forecast
track.
Data
from the hurricane hunter aircraft indicate that Isaac remains poorly
organized. Some flight data indicates that the center was well south
of the previously estimated surface center location, while other data
suggest that the surface center remains farther north.
It
is important not to focus on the exact track due to uncertainties in
the initial location and the track forecast and the fact that Isaac
has a large area of tropical storm force winds associated with it.
Isaac is still due E of Roatan and has not made a definitive turn to
the north.
Until
this turn occurs and the storm is well to the north of us, all
interests in the Bay Islands and on the North Coast of Honduras
should monitor this system as it tracks slightly north of west
towards us and strengthens.
