A tick east, but man these corrected hurricane tracks just won't cave even within 24 hours. Wild.

They may end up being correct, but where all global models (and even some in house models) con't Helene on a NNE track to landfall, the cane models turn due N on a dime in the GOM. I tend to lean towards globals that handle upper air pattern better but just mho

With the direction it's moving right now based on recon I'd tend to go more with the spaghetti modeling but I'm not sure why the graphical depictions of each respective model vary so much. Something isn't syncing correctly. Any other site showing the same as TT's output for the hurricane models?
 
What makes you think these are incorrect?
Clearly, the NHC thinks they are correct. But, I've never seen these tropical model plots clustered so tightly in such disagreement with all global models this close to landfall. Even the meso models tropical and non-tropical are generally east of those plots particularly inland.

So IDK, my best guess as a hobbyist is a slightly different interaction with the ULL once inland is the difference in track.

Glad I don’t live in Tallahassee anymore. I remember when I moved there in 2016, they hadn’t had a direct hit from a hurricane in over three decades. Then literally months later they had Hermine, then Michael (not a direct hit but still) while I was still there, and now this.
 
For NC peeps (especially central/eastern), HRRR still showing a solid severe threat tomorrow with a good number of spin-ups.

That track has produced many tornadoes in the past. I was in one while working on the ramp at RDU. It looked like a white sheet coming up the runway.

I'm not writing any possibility off until tonight for anywhere in GA. This is the most critical time to see what Helene does. A 2 now can mean anything from a 2 to a 4 at landfall tonight especially if deep RI is starting soon. I hope it's not bad but I don't think we should jump to conclusions just yet.
 
A tick NW of the 06Z run, but yet again, east of the NHC cone. Yes, it's the NAM, yada, yada, yada. This is a 15-hour forecast.

What are you talking about? Or is this in general a “in my backyard”?
