That could very well be the real deal right?


The NHC only updates the track at 5 and 11, not during intermediate advisories.

<RICKY>


That's not true, they had a 2 PM Track earlier today.

No, that's the 11am track again.

and no, the 2pm track was the exact same as the 11am track. Only the initial position changed.

Assuming Ernesto crosses the small pocket of very warm water along the southern coast of Cuba, is that a big enough area of very warm water to have an effect on the strength of the storm?

Seems a bit whacked. I dunno. :roll:


I think it does.


IF there is a trend it has to start somewhere, however this solution would be in line with what many mets on this board have been saying all day. Those who didn't buy the Eastward GFS trend.

Curious to see what the NHC will do with their 11pm track. I'd say a shift more towards MS on the 5 day given these new models.

Well it's not in the GOM yet so I guess anything is possible.
Look how far away it still is from the GOM.

I think they are showing you the 8:00PM postion marked as TS in relation to the 5:00PM forecast track.

hard to believe a model is saying 150 kts...not much to say about it. I am not very familair with the models track record.

Looking at the models tonight from early this morning . Good ole Ernie is shitfting way east and north of what was forcast earlier..... So southern tip FL and up the East coast is still not out of the question (for all those that thought my earlier post was so humorous)

Is the convection now wraping around the center. See that curve?

Also It think if it goes north of Jamaica it will hit cuba and go north. If it goes sout of Jamaica it wil probally hit tip of cuba or right between mexico and cuba.
