They are really agreeing now right on the NHC track(except for the A98E)

Is it just me or are all the models starting to hint at a possible turn to the WNW or NW at the very end of the forecast period?

Yes tight clustered and that is a real consensus for the globals and tropicals.

Huh.
The GDFL turns Frances out to sea while the UKMET aims it at South Carolina.

Hoofah...

Turn Northwest

As I mentioned earlier today and the models are now starting to hint at it, Frances will not be a threat to Florida but from the Carolinas northward.

Westward turns cannot be ruled out after a NW movements.

Well, except the NHC (which pretty much splits the difference of all the other tracks) would take Frances right across the southern tip of Florida. (by this model, anyway, 7-8 days out).

I noticed the same thing with the NHC. All you can do right now is observe the numbers and watch any sudden movements.

I don't think it'll turn out to sea anymore. I think it's on a hard westward track atm.
