Feeling you dogblues64, but I do think you might have more response about current conditions and current track issues on the discussion thread. I'd love to see some posts about what you are experiencing wind and surge wise over there. I think people in here are looking at models mostly beyond Cuba because they are in pretty good agreement until then at least.

Please give us some reports in the discussions thread though. How high are the winds where you are right now?

Of note on the Euro 500 mb pattern - a strong trough migrates from the great basin to the southern plains from 120 to 144 hrs (5-6 days) and lifts the storm north off the Tx coast. I don't have to tell everyone that timing will be a big issue here.

Most models want to send Ike inland once it turns north. This will all come down to timing whether the north turn occurs after landfall, prior to landfall (SE TX), or a little further out which would mean landfall further east. These runs are encouraging for interests in Louisiana, but with that being said, I don't feel much better about it at the same time. Still not concerned yet, I'll be waiting for Ike to enter the GOM first.

Side note: the tropics are back! It's hot and muggy today after a nice period of fall-like weather.

This would be really great snapshot way to compare models and runs....the 12z runs below can be the starting point....

Dog,

I don't think any of us in Florida neglects the Keys. Y'all are durn important to us, despite the fact you're 120+ miles 'out there'.
I am a major fan of the Keys and my heart jumps every time we see a storm in your vicinity.
I have great hope Ike won't give you any more trouble than Fay or Gustav.
I'd say you guys have done your part this season.
Hang in there!

seeing the 6z gives the 12z a very different feel in my mind...less about the locations and more the west trend

Right now Im leaning to South Texas..the trough progression just looks like its not going to be enough to break the ridge down very much...good news for the north gulfcoast from Houston to Pensacola for sure!

your concern is warranted but this is the first post i've seen from anyone from Key west today...You are closer to the storm than most so stay tuned for any unexpected changes
