Upper-level winds are helping to give it that nudge as they are blowing out of the east...lots of drought-busting rain over the Bahamas and a huge mass of it is sitting offshore the SE Coast of FL. I think it is going to get close but the bulk of it will probably stay at least 30-40 miles to the east. So close, yet so far (big bummer).....maybe we will get lucky and the system will take a big "wobble" to the west....
It would not take much more of a wobble to the west for some of that moisture to get to the coast gatorcane I can tell you that much. But, like you said, so close but probably not likely for significant rains from Emily.
It has just been that kind of season so far with so many folks suffering from drought conditions. Hopefully the pattern will change soon and we can get some drought busters to come from the tropics soon.
