All of a sudden this is going to something really not good for the US. It's already got itself a ticket to having its name retired, now we've got a potential major hurricane along the Florida East Coast (what's more Frances got more attention than Jeanne has, and Jeanne is potentially more dangerous.)

The forecast doesn't actually make landfall along the coast--I don't think, but it might as well; if you check out the 96 hour point, it's very difficult to see if it is possible to actually reach that point without hitting land.

Wow! I never thought Jeanne had the potential to be this bad, and you are so right about the Frances comparison, no one is really paying much attention to Jeanne (media) but she could be much worse than Frances.

"Jeanne is moving a little west of due north, but I don't really have enough evidence to determine a definite forward motion"

What kind of forecat is this for Jeanne????

29.2N 81W is Daytona Beach.

You calling for an eyewall skimmer similar to David in 1979?

I apologize for that; that's supposed to be "north of due west"..thanks for pointing that out...mistakes happen trying to scurry along like I am.

It's really hard to say for sure now..I've never had a forecast with 0 error out farther than 36 hours.
