Let's wait for a trend to show itself and so far I have seen no trends with any of the models. Timing (once again) is going to be everything! :?

Actually its not just one run. Its been several runs now. And with the strong Pacific jet and associated energy dropping into the SW next week, then across the CONUS, it is IMO a possibility that is more than slim. IF it stays over water AND if it stays in the BOC, things COULD get interesting next week. The scenario COULD play out. That siad it COULD go into Mexico, or play with the coastline there. But there is tropical trouble brewing there over the next few days. :roll:

I agree Steve, it is just that the timing has to be right for any of the ablove scenarios and we are just simply back the the "wait and see" stage! Seems we do that alot lately. Usually with any system in the BOC or GOM we have more ideas on track and intensity but with all of the fronts coming down it is really just anyones guess. It is supposed to be 48 degrees Friday morning here!! BRRR :)

12 Canadian pretty much the same through 72 hours. Might be a few miles further west near the MX coast. ETA has it hanging out in the BOC through 84 hours. GFS at 12Z still pushes it slowly into the SW BOC coastline, then into MX.

Ok. I need your help guys. First, what is the BOC?

Secondly, what on that Pressure map looks alarming? Is it that low pressure storm hugging the Gulf coast?

Ominous model, but that is a mighty sharp turn. Timing is key. If that model pans out, it will be serious for many.
