GFS track looks horrible for FL, GA, and SC.

That's just BS to claim he's wrong more than he's right about big events

Pretty bold of him to say that is won't go into the gulf this early on...that's kind of dangerous tbh for someone of his status to speak that. Maybe he will be right though. I hope so.
Don't think the GEFS is going to be much help lol.... members off the east coast and members west, I don't know a mean probably right into Fl surprised I know
Take the Spann conversation to banter please, do not clutter up this thread with that..... only going to say it once. thanks
You can click on there name and then hit ignore.... if you need to.This! Is there a way to hide posts from members in the forum?
Oan. I really hope this thing goes out to sea. I am enjoying reading all of your input and enjoyed the live show last night.
One thing to bring up again, we are relying on weak diffuse trough/ULL to pull this north. We have trouble getting these right a day or two before they come in. Models will bounce for a while.

Are stronger hurricanes less likely to be influenced by features such as a trough ?

Update: Newest @NOAA_HurrHunter recon just found 160kt or 185mph winds; Means #Irma may have just slid into a tie for 2nd strongest H winds

Opposite....looks for path of least resistence.
Spoke too soon, gefs looks a little east....

Mean is actually a good bit west of 6z. Landfall in the keys northward.
What you can clearly see is they differ on the placement of the ULL.

If Irma doesn't have a lot of interaction with land before it hits the really warm waters where the record breaking hurricanes set their records, what would keep her from continuing to strengthen? Seems like if it got this strength where it's at, that it could get even stronger?

HWRF goes to 189 kt at 850 mb on Thursday, that's about 220 mph

Yeah I seriously can't believe what's happening right now... We might have a 185 mph category 5 hurricane at 2pm. This is essentially a 30-40 mile wide EF-4 tornado

mandatory evacuations in the Florida Keys already

I kind of had a bad feeling it would make it to a 5, but I never even thought a 185 mph cat 5 was possible here. Just insane to think that it could gain more strength too, and maybe even around the Keys.
