The three day forecast can and does change every 6 hours. I think knowing the previous forecast and model runs as time goes by still serves a purpose no matter where landfall ultimately is.

at this point i think karl will be a fish.. (the wave just off Africa). however, I do see weaknesses left by Ivan, and if this pans out as I think it will, it looks like a carolinas storm.

Yes the circulation is better defined now even though it is over land! GFDL has this riding the spine of the island chain and coming in near Miami, then into the central part of the state. Of course this is the left outlier (even though CMC is west) and the NHC is moving off the coast toward the Carolinas, or even further off shore. The answer probably lies somewhere in between, and the NHC track will shift left. How far left and when is the question. This storm should stya just north of Hispaniola, which is a problem. This could be a cat II by late tomorrow. We'll see how shear plays into it, but near the end of the period the conditions should be favorable for intensification :eek:

The storm seems to be getting better organized despite the shear.

[quote="ericinmia"]LOL, For one to understand the NHC track one has to look at the previous runs. The NHC WILL NOT change their 5 day track drastically unless it effects someone in the immediate. In this case it doesn't... They do this to maintain consistancy, and round out guidance errors.
-Eric

I beg to differ. For Ivan, the NHC changed the 5 day forecast repeatedly. Going back to the runs on 9/8, 9/9 and 9/10, it moved all over the place. I was printing them out daily to show one day the track was far east, then back through Tampa, then west, then back through Tampa again, until finally consistently being west starting on the 11th.

I'm not saying this changes anything about Frances at all.

Josephine96, with all due respect. You're suffering from hurricane jet lag.
We're all bummed out with hurricanes here.

I think you are optomistic and sort of -removed- to say Jeanne is coming into central florida.

I think she never develops above a cat 1 storm and moves up through the bahamas and then curves out to sea never hitting CONUS.

take it to the bank.....
the piggy bank that is.
what do I know...
I have never even stayed at a holiday inn......express.....
