To my untrained eyes, it looks to be MS/AL line.

I have look at a few models today not so much at Isaac but at what is happening N of us and they all show the ridge breaking at some point.The amplification of the trof and differences between the 06Z and 12z of the GFS is negligble to my eyes but has been mentioned the speed is alittle slower of Isaac.If you look at the 06GFS @84 hrs the ridge is broken and Isaac is going in at Ft.walton or there's about but on the 78hr of the 12Z the ridge is holding ever so slightly so that could still be up in the air itself.It appears that the trof may leave Isaac behind if this run verified @ the MS/AL border.

Wants to crawl up mobile bay. This looks exactly like Georges in 98...that one dropped over 2 feet of rain near my folks on the al/ms state line


This really just looks more like 0z Euro in that steering collapses at the end game. It's hard to predict landfalls. Looks to me like if it hits east pensacola then it will move cuz there's more steering to pull north. But slightly weaker steering and stronger ridge and you get it drifting in over al/ms

Strong as in Major hurricane Cat 3+. GFS does a terrible job (and for that part all of the models do) at extrapolating pressure. Given the amount of isobars though, this is definitely a major hurricane on this run. GFDL, NAM, and now GFS have a significantly stronger system in the 00z runs.

thing that is scary is gfs usually has the intensity much weaker than realistically (aka hurricane status = TS winds on gfs) so them coming out with this.. well I guess it is just plain scary

:eek: Yikes, that doesn't look good for us. What do the models see that has moved it west and any clue if that will continue to be a trending target?

In terms of miami dade and broward thus far iam likeing the 12z model trends which are further south into lower keys. Bamd is now an outlier.
