In this image, the best slip/slidin' is going on in the NE, as the weak
tropical circulation slides under the upper level circulation from the SW.
Just goes to show how weak that circulation is.  That's sheer, and
hurricanes don't like sheer.

Or rather, I should say, hurricanes are ambivalent about sheer.  A really
good hurricane requires sheer in order for the chimney to draw.  It's called
an "outflow channel", but it's just highlevel sheer by another name.
