Boy you are getting the reading glasses out now...;)

The only positive is that the models seem to be trending more towards a southern solution.

Looks more like an extreme South Florida hit, before going out to sea.

being in the direct path on a 5 day forecast generally is the best place to be due to the errors that far out. south floirda has been in the situation more than a few times since my arrival in fort lauderdale 8 years ago.

the models will flip flop. I say the models will move a little more to the left. I have seen the models do this way too many times..
