BASED ON THE PREMISE THAT ERNESTO WILL BE FAR
ENOUGH NORTH AND STRONG ENOUGH TO RESPOND TO THE WEAKNESS...THE
LATTER PART OF THE NEW FORECAST TRACK IS NUDGED A LITTLE TO THE
NORTH OF THE PREVIOUS FORECAST.

Re: ATL: ERNESTO - Tropical Storm
Looking at the Rainbow IR, looks like he will be a hurricane with in the next 12 hours. I don't know if you will consider this RI or not, but I think everyone from Nicaragua to Tampa need to keep an eye on Ernesto and that includes Cuba, and all the other islands of the Caribbean.

So they need Ernesto to be A) far enough North and B) strong enough in order to feel the weakness. It looks like he is definitely churning along and showing great potential to strengthen so I have a feeling that one of the 2 requirements will easily be met. The other one...we will have to see.

despite all that... the models are not showing any development with 91l if it does even just lower the pressures in the are that will likely cause a more pronounced weakness that the models are not picking up on. that may be a key factor to watch.

So you're saying the Fl peninsula isn't off the hook yet?

Re: ATL: ERNESTO - Tropical Storm
This thing chewed up and spit out the east Caribbean unfavorable zone. I think we can interpolate from there.

I think the models are under estimating the weakness. dont think florida is in the window right now but the northern gulf coast is not out of the wood yet. 91l may contribute to creating more of a weakness. just have to wait and see.

Yup, I agree. Jasons, still too early, but keep the hurricane prep kit handy.

I hesitate going against Wxman57's gut call of Mexico, he's pretty good at tropical weather IMO.
But tonight makes me think Texas is very much in play with Ernesto.
