Re: Hurricane Watches up For NC/VA, Warnings Later Today

I looked at the latest SHIPS model and it's only showing 2 kts difference between over water and over land for the next 36 hours. Too much vorticity/ helicity keeping Earl going I guess.

Latest data is showing a 50 mile near miss at Hatteras. That's 50 miles minus the diameter of the eye using the current forecast track.
That's just too close for any comfort.

When in doubt, take the word of the National Hurricane Center.
