I haven't completely abandoned my belief that hurricane Isabel will remain farther south than most guidance indicates...but now am becoming more confident that landfall will occur north of South Florida...
However, on the 5 to 7 day outlooks, the margin for error is large....why I strongly urge folks in Southern Florida to continue closely monitoring the progress of this large and extremely dangerous hurricane.....along with coastal residents farther north..
