Since nobody's around I'll go off topic, Jose is going to be very interesting, and Katia's remnants may end up in the Pacific and slam Cabo. About the craziest I've seen the tropics since '04 '05
As webb stated earlier, Jose will be one to watch with 18gfs looping it around to only slingshot back towards the US.
 
Yeah the 00z Euro is tossing her much further into Cuba in the next 6 hrs or so hm

good or bad? depending on how far west good for some parts of FL, bad is more rocket fuel avail in the gulf for restrengthening and more uncertain paths to take
 
Jack Straw from Wichita! Good to see some other heads on here. I'm still watching if anyone wants to keep posting the Euro. Thanks!
 
Two things before bed.

One, the big boost in the northern outflow channel.

Two, if the Euro is correct the slowly increasin southwesterly shear mentioned by NHC will not bother Irma that much due to its increasing northeasterly movement. Bent mentioned Charley which is a good case.

Wilma also was travelling with the shear into the same general area and bombed out again approaching FL (when the NHC thought she'd just gradually weaken fail)
 
I've been watching forecast and satellites the last 2 days. Am I the only one thinking this could hit in the panhandle? The models have shifted W for 2 days w no sign of stopping. Just think it may go much further west that forecast.

yes that possibility is still on the table at this time if so it depends where the panhandle is hit and what strength she is packing what the northern and eastern sides from there get
 
Thnx pea, I agree. Was wondering if I was the only seeing that possibility. It hasn't shown much effort to start it's N track.
