Wow..

CMC is quite the flip flopper...lets see a few more runs. Also, I know GFS and GFDL have had some problems. I would like to seem a few more runs of them that are "consistent" before getting too excited about them. But the definately paint a bad picture for FL, as well, as AL, MS, and LA

Are the conditions right for a major hurricane ? I have read that some people dont think they are. A little confused about this. I'm just your average idiot, so please bear with me.

If CMC is right and instead of florida it shifted slighty west and hit new orleans on the 1 year date...holy cow. Ernesto could finish off what katrina started. Yuck...ok bad thoughts...hope that does not happen.

CMC and GFS are now pulling it up the West Coast of Florida :eek:

Selfishly (sp?); it does not look like an issue for us in SE Fl.
Not that I wish it on the west caast of anywhere but this should still pass well to the west of us East Coast Floridians with no real effect on our weather (or schools) as we near the anniversary of being closed for a day when Katrina slid by to our south.

well...CMC hasnt been great of late. If memory serves it spear-headed the campaign on the SW carribean ghost storm last weekend that should have hit Panama City yesterday. A NW florida forecast worries me though none-the less...storm tracks and models often swing back and forth a lot between NOLA and Apalachicola when they are headed for that region.

Too far South moving too fast West. IMO will not be a Florida player.

I'm going to go all in on due west once in the GOM to Mexico!

I've got pocket rockets (2 Aces) and Ernest Madril has 7 high!

I don't think that it is an issue for the FSU-UM game.
1- It will be long gone by then
2- This does not look to be an issue for Dade County. Maybe up in Tallahassee but the game is down here.

boston - good to have you on the board. I need a lotta reinforcement here; seems there are lots of UM and UF fans.

This should not jeopardize the game, though.

I'm a little puzzled as to what the models are showing, myself...
