It looks the east side is toast , but the west side looks like it is trying to hang in there.

Storms often expand as they weaken. Ernesto had a 105 mile TS windfield while he was over Cuba, then it tightened back to 85 miles when he came offshore. Now he's growing back to 105 miles.

I'd say Ernesto is toast. A minimal to middle TS rain event.


Maybe for Fla but that is not what they are talking about up here. I am now under a Hurricane watch


I am too, but I see little chance of there being much left if it tracks through FL a long time.

If it's becoming more ragged as the NHC says (and it is, as far as I can see), then how is it going to strengthen to a 55kt TS in 9 hours? Highly unlikely it'll be more than a 45 mph TS at landfall.

See it that deep convection on the east side can wrap around center

one of my local mets just said that he does not agree with the NHC and think it will go into the east gulf before turning NE into FL... It looks like it may go into the gulf...Anyone agree?

If by "Eastern Gulf" he meant "Florida Bay", then yeah, it's possible.

I can only agree with what I see, and I see it going into the eastern Gulf as we speak. Remember it either has to stall or slow down before heading back
NE and it's still moving at quite a clip I must add.

he said that it will go west of the keys and maybe a little father north and west than that before it turns NE.... It might happen.... So far No one has been right on this storm's intensity or track...

Don't go by Radar. You have to go by satellite. It is NW
