Yes, but as of right this minute the cone of terror has no meaning. The NHC has not even decided where this will go.

Pro Mets...where do you currently think this will go? Have the forecasted steering currents changed since yesterday or is this still a MX, TX, LA threat down the road?
:uarrow: :uarrow: Won't know anything for a couple of days.
Oh I know, and I am not expecting an exact answer. Just wanted to see if their overall thinking was the same as it was last night.

I am almost feeling safe from this storm, but the developing low off the GA coast is worrying. It will create a weakness in the ridge, plus that front over the south has been inching lower each model run and the most recent one showed it's tail end dropping down along the tx gulf. If the trend is for that front to lower even further, that spells trouble for the panhandle, but leaves TX and LA safe.

I did't see the models seeing the developing feature except the GFDL and CMC at one point. Maybe they are over doing it, maybe under doing it.

As I said yesterday, we'll probably have to wait until Sunday night to have a better grip on what teh other synoptics will be to steer this to a landfall point.

Here we go again LinkerWeather. Hope you got some rest, because it looks like you'll be awfully busy over the next week! :P

Well given that dissipation isnt as likely as many of us originally thought its time for everyone from the FL keys to Texas to start watching Ernesto. IMO it will encounter more conducive conditions late in the weekend.


Here we go again folks :roll:

There is a higher chance of me winning 1 million bucks tomorrow than S FL being affected.

bad year! and they say another nino year may be approaching. hope not! -but that is for discussion elsewhere.

So, let's hear your early % check....totally off the record.... 15% chance of it hitting FL or more?

I still say that the last 1/2 of the 5:00 pm discussion is the exact same as the 11:00 am discussion. I think they just cut and paste it and didn't even write up a new one...
