Jeanne and the East Coast

[Novacane]

Bastardi and DT are both saying this is most likely a GOM event and they've both been good on their long-range calls this season.

Suffice it to say that, once again, everyone from Hatteras to Galveston probably ought to keep an eye Jeanne.

Like there hasn't already been enough to fret about this season....

[Josephine96]

LOL too much to fret about..

If bad things really do come in 3's.. then this could be Florida's 4TH if Ivan hits the panhandle..

[Skywatch_NC]

It would seem then that w/ this New England/NW Atlantic high pressure...that would eventually steer Jeanne NE out into the open Atlantic and not be a threat to the USA. A fish then at least for the states...we can only hope.

jeanne will stall for about 5 days after it gets done with the islands and then head into florida or south of it into the gulf

[MBryant]

Does the high building to the north and northeast set Jeanne up for a Betsey scenario?

[Josephine96]

My this thread got popular..

Yes we can only hope Jeanne stays out at sea.. It'll be something to watch the next 5-7 days..

jeanne is going to stall with a building ridge to her north? isnt the scnario ivan stalls and builds heights to the east and lets jeanne take the southerly route?

[Josephine96]

J- I think that sounds more correct

hmm...where is ivan?

[indiboxer]

Central Fla has still never seen a landfall from a major {thank God Frances weakened}.. but this could be the 1 if she rapidly intensifies

FYI
Central FL has been hit by category 3 hurricanes. This shows they have been more then any other part of the state, including South Florida.

Ivan's long gone by that time I'm sure..

If any of you guys wanna see my thoughts on Jeanne.. check out "my 1st forecast" thread..

{slaps self}

That is OK. My in laws in Orlando always say the same thing and I just digged and researched to prove them wrong. I was surprised by this too. My friend in Jacksonville said they never got hit either.



Thank you for all of your information. It is helpful.

yeah i know...i am saving that map and we will see where jeanne is in 7 days in relation to that map.

[yoda]

Yup, same here.

[rbaker]

how many times do we have to not pay attn to these 5 day forecast, when they change every 6hrs? Ive learned this year to quit paying attn to these forecast way far out, they are unrealiable to say the least. Just look at Ivan.
