NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN JUAN PR 531 AM AST TUE AUG 3 2010
ALL OF THE MODELS CURVE COLIN NORTHWARD...WHICH WOULD PLACE COLIN DUE NORTH OF PUERTO RICO AT 24.5 NORTH BY EARLY MORNING FRIDAY. COLIN HAS MOVED TOWARD 283 DEGREES AT 25 KTS DURING THE PAST 24 HOURS. IT IS NOT CLEAR WHY IT IS FORECAST TO CURVE SO MUCH GIVEN THE LOCATION OF THE LOW LEVEL HIGH...THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND THE SPEED AT WHICH IT IS MOVING. AND IF IT DID NOT CHANGE COURSE IT WOULD CROSS INTO THE CARIBBEAN NEAR GUADELOUPE. IT MAY BE SPECULATED THAT FOR THIS REASON THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER HAS STATED THAT INTERESTS IN THE NORTHERN LEEWARD ISLANDS SHOULD MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF COLIN. REGARDLESS OF ACTUAL TRACK AT THIS POINT MOISTURE FROM COLIN BEING PULLED IN FROM THE SOUTHEAST WILL KEEP THE AREA MOSTLY CLOUDY AND WET THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...WITH SOME CLEARING ON SATURDAY. BETTER SHOWERS RETURN ON TUESDAY AS AN AREA OF MOISTURE AT LOWER LEVELS EXTENDING AT LEAST UP THROUGH 700 MB ENTERS THE AREA ON TUESDAY AND IS FOLLOWED BY THE REMNANTS OF A TROPICAL WAVE LATE WEDNESDAY OR EARLY THURSDAY.
