Re: Memorial Day Weekend Area to Watch

Indeed, model support is increasing for a system moving through the Yucatan Channel, then recurving into the Florida big bend area around the end of this week. The CMC is most bullish, taking quite an intense system into the big bend / panhandle on Friday, then keeping it inland and weakening. The UKMET model takes a broader, and somewhat weaker system across the central Florida west coast, moves it offshore near the FL / GA border, where it rapidly deepens before skirting the SC / NC coast. Again, the Florida landfall is around Friday, with the system affecting the Carolinas late this coming weekend. The GFS doesnt seem to give much support for either solution though at the moment!
