The models are playing catch up as usual. We have a hurricane that is less likely to be weakened by land interaction headed towards the southeast. Our ridge data which will be the key to track has been flip flopping from 30 millibars stronger than modeled to weaker than modeled in the Bahamas.

Hope the folks in Puerto Rico are OK.

That 1018 High is camped out over North Carolina again in the 78 hour GFS...It's going to be another close run to the coast I think.

84 hours...looks to be finding the weakness. Some nerve wracking days ahead for the US East Coast I'm afraid...

6z GFS is slightly faster and to the right of the 0z run - also slightly stronger. Takes it thought the center of the Bahamas as opposed to the westers side of the Bahamas.

Yep, 06Z GFS is definitely further east this run. Another thing to note that it initializes poorly... has Irene off the SW tip of PR at 12Z today as a weak storm, so it is already significantly off, which would seem to suggest possible further east shifts on future runs.

Yeah, that is quite a big difference between runs. Has Irene moving much faster up the coast toward SC. So, the weakness in the ridge at h126 is more pronounced, which is more like the 0z Euro. Note that the trough will eventually lift out, so the thing to watch for over the next 24-48 hours is whether Irene moves fast enough. If she slows, it is possible for a much different solution in 5 days, since the ridge could build back in. However, it has to be said that the threat to SC/NC is increasing, and that the trend is E more offshore from Pen FL. Of course, this is just one run, and the NHC track is the official track...

Scariest gfs run I've seen in a long time for up here, looks like a hurricane from the Carolinas to near NYC/Western LI and Eastern NJ.

Core is offshore, but way to close.
