Re: 5pm disc said track pulled east

Yes, they said East, but the track is slightly West of the 2PM intermediate advisory. It is slightly East of the 11AM advisory.



They do not update the forecast track in intermediate advisories. The new model runs are done at the time of the intermediates, but the official forecast is not changed until the full package is sent out, unless there is a drastic change in strength, in which case they will issue a new strength forecast sometimes. I've never seen them change the track.

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