Re: ATL: IRENE - Models
At 60 hours nearly identical position as the 18z run. Weakening ensues as it interacts with land.

Re: ATL: IRENE - Models
60 hrs over Haiti Peninsula, it can survive that if it stays just N of Cuba it may bomb!

If I was holding my breath on this ridge moving, I'd be dead by now. Large gap in the ridge...with its strength I'm surprised it isn't moving farther north.

Re: ATL: IRENE - Models
I know that the models have been consistent in making this a Florida threat down the road,
but many times before we have seen them overestimate the strengths of troughs. Katrina
was originally forecasted to come close to the West coast (after hitting S. FL) as it went into the Gulf but the models
went much further west 3 days before landfall....same thing with Ivan-- originally FL Peninsula
and then west to the panhandle/MS border...Fay and Charley were exceptions to this
trend so we will see...if the models start shifting west away from FL I will feel better...
