The 5pm forecast track doesnt have the loop back to the florida coast, what happened to the high pressure that was going to steer it back?

The previous forecast track for Jeanne wasn't definately a loop to the Florida coast. The overall direction for the system continues to be uncertain.

The high pressure still exists, it will play a role in it current and eventual movement. As advertised, it will be a very slow process.

Any place along the east coast and out to sea are possibilities with this storm.

I see, I live in Florida and am weary and tired of what to expect next.

When I did not see the turn, and headlines in our local papers and news and I was wondering what happened today to make them say no threat to Florida

Glad to see that sorm forecasting is just as accurate as ever.
I truly don't understand how the NHC can not
get a handle on Jean.

Maybe they need more computers tor run more models.

A very slow steering pattern makes the ultimate movement of a tropical system very difficult.

Giving a "more possible" scenario may be 90 to 180 degrees off so it is best to err
on the side of caution with tropical cyclones, especially slow moving, erratic ones.
