** No impact from Fiona for Jacksonville/NE Fl./SE Ga. through the weekend into early next week.... **” Wed. evening. Fiona has been battling a narrow but significant - 30-40 mph - band of westerly shear to its immediate west & northwest which is causing much/almost all of the shower & t’storm activity to stay over the eastern portions of the circulation but intense bursts of thunderstorms have been persistent allowing for some intensification Wed.
The westerly shear + somewhat dry air nearby are the most likely reasons for Fiona’s struggles this week. It is worth noting Fiona has so far managed to to still produce strong & persistent convection despite less than ideal conditions. Heavy rain & strong/gusty winds can be expected for Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands & nearby islands Fri. night through the weekend... & for Hispaniola Sunday-Mon.
On the current official forecast track, Fiona will move near or a little east of some of the highest mountain ranges of Haiti & the Dominican Republic. It’s this part of the forecast - Puerto Rico & Hispaniola - that right now is the most critical - the “fork in the road” when it comes to strength once over the SW Atlantic given the track over land could seriously disrupt Fiona’s organization.
