NHC's new experimental gridded marine forecast is quite interesting!

Looks like at some point there may be a weakness around 70-75W to cause future Colin to slow down and briefly turn NW..*IF* this occurs may be temporary as ridging may try to build in once again over the SE/W atlantic as Michael alluded too and block recurvature..just a thought and im sure will change many times over...

IMO, it may not be too long, maybe an hour or two from now that we have or 90L again or 91L.

Is the GFS showing the system to be pretty strong?

It makes sense for the Canadian. It sees 2 vort maxes and automatically wants to spin both of them up. Once it figures out the southern one will probably take over, it will be interesting to see what it does

Heh ... that's a nasty looking scenario.

It'll be interesting to see if this persists over the next few days worth of runs. If it does, we may have liftoff.

Going to be watching the high evolution (more than what intensity the models show that far out). No doubt there's enough energy for a strong storm if it reaches the Bahamas area. Have to hope (for S Fla at least) that at that point the high isn't too strong and solid completely across the peninsula.
On some earlier runs the high retreated pretty significantly for a time from the coast. At least on that last run that Ivanhater posted the major storm is relatively far north and still (edit: a bit) east of the Bahamas.

Well, there's something to that - same weakness as it passes the islands, then a ridge building in to turn it west to Florida.
