Hurricanes are more affected by high and low pressure weather systems (blocking highs) which change often than by ocean currents. They are also affected by upper level wind currents which can shear off the tops of hurricanes which also change dramatically. They are also affected by humidity as well which can change from day to day.

pdowd,

re: "check out the track of Hurricane Betsy 9/9/1965"

Well, sure. But two hurricanes only a couple of weeks apart are more likely to be affected by the same ocean currents. If those currents are still in place, then Katia is *NOT* going to duplicate Irene's behavior. It's not positioned properly.

If those currents are still there, Katia will miss the U.S. by a wide margin.

That's my point.


And if they aren't, then there's not much point in speculating. No one has a clue where it might be headed.
