Don't know, but the GFS seems to think so. It's current 0600 run depicts Isabel making a hard right in the SE Bahamas and heading straight north, just to the west of Bermuda as per Henri, then takes it perilously close to southern New England before tailing it back NE toward the Canadian maritimes. All flights of supercomputer fancy at this point, but the trend of a weakening ridge and a hard right turn up the EC seems to stay pretty consistent with every run.

Isabel will likely move west for quite a while. The question is, how soon will Isabel recurve? It could be an east coast threat (Carolinas through New England), or it could be a problem for Florida. I think it is too early to tell.
