Ugh... the link is updating right now so there's no image.

These are the same models, do you see it here?

Of course that is not right... it's not anywhere close to Panama.

the blue line is the UKMet, which was run earlier than the other models. therefore the line is there because the storm was not in the same position as the other models.

It just looks like a glitch. If you look at it carefully you'll notice that the image of all the models is duplicated on the lower portion of the screen. It simply appears to be graphical glitch. Those are not additional models for another storm just the same ones for Ivan superimposed, further south, I'm sure by msitake.

Fungus, not sure you are looking at what I am.....I know what each represents. There is a representation of each model 2 times, one set coming from the jamacia area and one set coming from the deep south area........http://www.wunderground.com ... model.html
