Considering the SW movement that the GFDL had forecast, I am thinking a Pensacola to Panama City landfall. Good shot at a Cat 3......MGC

If this hit Pensacola as a Cat 3, I would be speechless. :eek:

I think that is appropriate at this point.

My father is in Big Pine, last spoke at 7:00. I didn't see this coming and unfortunately neither did he.

He said that he's not totally sold on the ridge over northern Louisiana and Mississippi weakening and moving out as quickly to the west and that a more westerly track deeper into the Gulf than the NHC track seems quite possible. He said that the current wsw track of Katrina confirms to him that the high is still quite strong. This isn't a met who ever hypes anything and is generally conservative, so I did want to share his thoughts for those who might be interested. No, he didn't say it would/could come to Louisiana or Texas. He simply said what I posted above.

Looks like Greg was on to something...
