    In my opinion... Fiona is gonna gain strength, to the point of being stronger than Earl. Tropical cyclones are low pressure systems, and take "the path of least resistance". Fiona is following in Earl's wake, meaning it doesn't have to use energy to make a forward path. It can simply follow the path directly in front of it.. making path easier to follow, and since the pressure will already be low, the cyclone will make the pressure lower and thus gain intensity... but then, this is all just my opinion. I don't know much, I just chase...:biggrin_2559:

    No you are very correct in your educated guess...I have lived thru these types of storms since I was a pre teen. Fiona is gonna hurt people if she doesnt head out to sea......just saying

    Fiona is not going to head out to sea. She has too easy a path following Earl. You mark my words.
