People need to remember one things about storms, you can not predict what they will do. Chris has been written off to die and look at it now. If the system gets in the gulf , we all need to watch it from the big bend to say LA/MS border. The picture will get clearer by weekend.

Again I come home from work and we have a strong named TS. Maybe I should stay home from work and Chris will weaken. Talk about a wild ride this one is giving us. You island 2kers hunker down.....

I think it will need to watched from the Big Bend all the way to Brownsville. With such a strong ridge to the north, this system will likely be more of a central/western Gulf threat.

Wow, really? Have any storms made that long of a journey that far west? I have not checked but I would think that would be a rare occurrence

Should be passing through the center either at the end of this next set or the beginning of the next one.

I think this will strengthen much faster and more intensely than the NHC thinks...I'm going to write a prediction shortly. It will make your head shake.

The 1900 Galveston 'cane did that, didn't it? I can't think of too many other examples though.

Well, the "upper" red line is gone, so... is there no center anymore? :lol:

Jason Kelly of WJHG TV Panama City says if Chris makes it into the gulf of mexico, his concern is the water temperatures, they are 86 and 87 degrees.

I'm not completely sold on the storm moving westward through the straits yet. I found this interesting item from the HPC disc this afternoon.

MODELS AND MEANS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THRU THIS FORECAST PERIOD WITH A MEAN TROF ALONG THE WEST COAST...WITH THE SRN EDGE OF THE WESTERLIES RUNNING EWD ACROSS THE NRN HALF OF CONUS AND E-W SUBTROPICAL RIDGING FROM THE WEST ATLC INTO SWRN CONUS. THIS PATTERN CONTS UNTIL DAY 6 MON WHEN RIDGING BUILDS NWD ACROSS THE NRN PLAINS AND MORE AMPLITUDE DEVELOPS IN AN ERN TROF.

Like everything else, its all timing. While the 18Z GFS weakens the storm (which may effect its path), the model brings it much further north along the SE coast of FL. Looks like two other disturbances closely following Chris' heels.
