Re: Tuesday Edouard Update

A couple of questions you northern gulf coasters need to ask.....

1. Will the GFDL model come to fruition as to the track? I think the intensity is way off, but then again I thought the projected track was screwy as well - yesterday... I might have been wrong... could a model actually be almost, kinda, sorta accurate.... time will tell..
2. If Edouard does move into the GOM, and actually survives the trip across FL, will it redevelop?? Again the NHC long term forecast hints at that possibility...
3. Finally NHC has the storm in the GOM at 28.5N and 85W in about 72 hours.... could this thing pull an Erin of 1995? Granted, Erin was a little stronger than old Eddie but.... same scenario.... cross FL, enter into GOM move west and redevelop... Erin kinda surprised Pensacola as a pretty strong Cat 1.....
