I was watching the Tropical Update at 6:50 CDT with Paul Goodblowe. Paul was talking about Alma and how it does not pose a threat for rain to the Baja or the SW US. All 4 "video" Accuweather guys (Ken, Bernie, Dr. Joe, and Joe B) have been saying this thing would curve for the last several days. Even the latest guidance from the NHC puts the storm on a NNE course through tomorrow and heading off to the NE within the forecast period. It's almost like these guys don't even forecast anymore but go off of models and read cue/queue cards. I'm not going to dis John Hope, but TWC seems to be on the decline if not in a tailspin.
