Side note Euro has another storm just north of the islands late in the period

Yeah i noticed that, and the upper level pattern thanks in part to the recurvature of Talim in the western Pacific is unfavorable-very unfavorable to early recurvatures in the central-western Atlantic with a monster ridge sitting over southeastern Canada, a feature that's often prevalent during tropical cyclone landfalls on the US...

The highly amplified pattern over the North Pacific-North American sectors late next week is traceable back to the recurvature of Talim in the Western Pacific... Unlike Sanvu, NWP models have become more impressed with Talim and his extratropical transition the next several days and this has major implications downstream. The excess heat and momentum deposition onto the right entrance region of the Pacific jet from Talim is effectively helping to excite a rapidly eastward propagating packet of Rossby Waves that ultimately results in large scale ridging over southeastern Canada and New England. This ridge that becomes highly amplified as the Rossby Wave packet nears, and halts the progress of Jose OTS forcing him back towards New England & the Mid Atlantic. We need to closely monitor the progress of Talim's extratropical transition and impact on the midlatitude waveguide (jet stream), because this could impact the steering pattern around Jose and potentially any other TCs that to try form in the east-central Atlantic within the next week or so
 
NHC acknowledging westward shift...
Since the guidance has shifted left, the new official track forecast is west of the previous one, but now lays on the eastern side of the guidance envelope. I would prefer to see more run to run consistency before committing to a farther left track at this time

Yeah the outflow induced (via Irma) upper level ridge north of Jose is stronger than forecast, what a shocker... Not.
