Re: GFS for mid week

While the GFS and NOGAPS have been developing a system, I think that its way too early for any track or intensity specifics based on a couple of model runs. The 15/00Z run of the GFS does form a weaker system from an area of lower pressure north of Panama early next week, but moves it inland and dissipates it over Nicaragua/Honduras by mid week. Until (and if) an actual system forms, the global models will be all over the place on track and intensity from run to run - and essentially useless from a forecasting standpoint.
