HURRICANE CENTER LOCATED NEAR 28.8N 89.6W AT 29/0900Z POSITION ACCURATE WITHIN 10 NM PRESENT MOVEMENT TOWARD THE NORTH OR 360 DEGREES AT 13 KT ESTIMATED MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE 915 MB EYE DIAMETER 30 NM MAX SUSTAINED WINDS 130 KT WITH GUSTS TO 160 KT. .......... You know, if you hold up a straight-edge, close one eye, and run a looper of the imagery at high speed over and over--you can pretty easily convince yourself that a straight line through Lake Pontchartrain is the track. Getting dizzy watching this loop. It also seems to help to make a little hole with your hand to peer through--and screen out everything but the eye of the storm--you can see the wobble a lot better and how it averages out on either side of a bearing of, perhaps, 350deg?
