The GFDL basically keeps or opens up Nicholas but with a strong pressure gradient between a strong NA high and the low pressure center, occasional tropical storm force winds are shown on the model run ... The low pressure center COULD pass quite close as another low pressure area (non-tropical) is located around 550-600 miles west of ex-Nicholas and will probably be absorbed into the circ.
Also, the persistent depiction of a brief tropical storm developing on the GFDL (and a couple of other models) continues to show up moving rapidly NNW into the period. Too late in the season, yes. However at the same time, 2003 has been a season of oddities. Based on the latest satellite imagery, strangely enough, it just might happen.

The GFDL, Nicholas, Bermuda, and the Cape Verde blob.
