Shawn, I agree that the 5 day forecast idea has not worked out very well. But the problem is not the NHC, it is the media. Those of us here on this forum know how uncertain even a 3 day forecast is, but the media hypes the 5 day like it is a certain thing.
Plus with the explosion of the Internet, there are lots a lots of people that don't understand how inexact the forecasts are, looking up the 5 day forecast on the NHC or other websites and freaking out.
