Good post...

For everyone who's criticized and questioned the NHC on this storm, I hope you take a look at this.

The fact is their forecast and the models have been right on the money with the track. Granted, the intensity was off, but that's to be expected. Intensity forecasting is still the biggest challenge.

Great post, SacrydDreams. NHC only about 50 miles off or so.

Sure was a good job with the track. Hopefully all factors are considered in the National Hurricane Center's forecast tracks.
