Re: The Box

I saw something like that too on TWC one night. Can't remember many details but there were areas pointed out (boxes) that if the hurricane passed through, it gave the storm a 60-75% chance to hit the SE coast of FL. Vice Versa on the out of the box tracks. A lot of them went into the Gulf but hit from TX to FL. But with this year's set up, I could see Emily riding just N of Cuba, hitting the keys, skirting the west coast and landfall in the big bend area. Obviously to far out to tell, but that the pattern that's set up for now. Have to see what troughs come down and the high - how strong the troughs are and what the high does either building in, holding, or retreating. Never seen the NHC as close to a prediction as Dennis. 7/7 (Thursday) their 5 day track was right on. The storm never moved 40-50 miles off that track...but that's unusual too. Let's stay tuned.
