Might be less than 48 hours. Perhaps only 42. Possibly late Friday afternoon if the speed keeps up and it indeed hits W. Palm Beach.

I remember earlier some people were putting all their faith in the ETA and how it said Florida. Things change when the models change don't they?

I believe Air Force Met mentioned that the new data would be blended with the earlier crap data in the 0z run. The real models to watch will be the 6z. Also, coincidentally, Stewart mentioned that the projected path may be nudged left tomorrow morning.

Wait until the models initialize the new data that was mentioned in the discussion & it will be a whole new world.

Let's see the NHC puts out hurricane watches thats 36hrs in advance of the system.You do a little math the closest point is South Carolina NOT.She hits way S in FL I am thinking the tip.The stong ridge keeps her at good clip in speed that is suppose to last maybe another 48hrs.By then she is in the GOM.
