It wont survive the big mountains of Guatemala and El Salvador.Only a Weak remmant low will be left in the Caribbean Sea if even one is left.

Well, I don't see my my most likely scenarion in your list, so I'll just post it:

Across the central Caribbean to eastern Cuba and/or Hispaniola. Probably just a rain event, but some slight chance of a little redevelopment.

Agreed. There should be some kind of remnant rain event at the very least, though.

Lots of mountains where this is going:

Agree None of the above. Though IMHO, it wont cross because its climatoligically unlikely before June 1st and its just rare to see a system change basins like that. But Storms have moved from the gulf-across the southeast and went offshore of the carolinas/virginia and reintensified and Jeanne was weakenned to almost nothing over hispanolia last year--that is very mountainous---but it didnt kill her.

Lake Nicaragua. Yeah, it could go that way, I think it'll try to cross west of there though. We'll see.

I mean, don't Hurricanes kinda get pushed around by Mountains...wasn't Andrew affected by the skyscrapers in Miami or something that pushed the Hurricane just barely south or is that just a myth cause i mean skyscrapers are so small and the hurricanes so large, but I can imagine a mountain affecting the trajectory of a hurricane and kind of pushing them towards a spot where they can kind of squeeze through. Kind of how Charely just completly skirted AROUND the Isle of Youth I think it was..?


I can guarantee that Andrew wasn't affected by Miami's skyscrapers. :lol: :lol:

In general, though, there is a "frictional effect" with land which can affect a hurricane's path. Doubtful that it would be strong enough to steer this system all the way around the mountains in its path, though. The dominant factor is the steering currents.

As I mentioned in another threads, there won't be a "whatever is left" if the expected regeneration
(some forecasters are believing it's more probable than others) in the Caribbean Sea occurs.

I voted for "simply go into the Atlantic" (and then I saw the western Caribbean option :lol:), but I expect that if there is a "whatever's left" after it crosses over, it will probably get sheared apart in the Caribbean unless it somehow moves southeastward from there.
