Ok folks.. Place your bets.. where's #5 going?

[Lowpressure]

JAMAICA better start preparations, I say.

[Swimdude]

Something tells me it'll head somewhere between Mexico and Florida...

Yes, I'm being funny.

[Josephine96]

I think this is the quickest I've ever had a thread get this many replies..

[Matt-hurricanewatcher]

Through the Yuctan channel or across the northern Part of the Yucatan...Kind of like Emily but slightly north. Then into northern Mexico at 25 north.


I say this will get to 70 knots over the western Caribbean....Weaken to a 50 knot tropical storm over the Yucatan then back into the Gulf as a cat1=65 knot hurricane into northern Mexico.

Thats what I think.

[benny]

dissipation then regeneration over the sw gulf

[Yankeegirl]

I am going to say somewhere in Texas as well... I think the high that has been sitting over us for so long has had enough sight seeing in Texas and is ready to move on... Just a thought.. But for real, anywhere from Texas to Florida is going to get it... I can say that for sure! I think Ernesto would like some enchaladas made tex mex style...

[x-y-no]

I'm betting it goes somewhere

Way to go out on a limb!

I'll say it clips the north end of the Yucatan ... not ready to speculate beyond that.

[Josephine96]

At least we all have our ideas..

You still suck John, but it was a good thread.

If I had to go with a path that would seem resonable at the moment but it really is too early to call.

[Josephine96]

Excuse you Do NOT!

[cajungal]

I am not ready to make a definite guess until he is named Ernesto. I think he may do a track similar to Lili and Isidore. LA/TX border-Morgan City. But, my guess will probably change. Even though I was on the bullseye for both Lili, Isidore, Katrina and Rita days out, I am no Sylvia Browne.

[Frank P]

My best guess at the moment is that this is going to be a Texas storm... and I also don't think it will get anyfarther east than SW LA... middle TX is a good a bet as any right now...

I think the ridge by next week will be firm in place, at least I sure hope it is

[gboudx]

Dallas.

[Mac]

Topeka, KS

[SouthFloridawx]

Topeka, KS

100% Agreed (TM)

[Lindaloo]

Since we know we now have either #5 or Ernesto... Where's he eventually going to go..

1st guess.. Into the Gulf, and either Alabama or Mississippi..

Um nope, thanks for your input anyway.

[AnnularCane]

Afghanistan.

Actually, a future Ernesto would most likely head to Mexico. Or maybe Cuba.
