Houstontracker,here's a note of hope.

Just looked at the 18Z GFDL. It started out with the 2 pm plot:22.4N, 84.4W. It said in six hours Lili would be at 22.9N, 85.7W. The 8PM update puts her at 23.0N, 85.6 W. That's real close, almost perfect in fact, and it still does not take it any further west than 93.5. So for the moment you could look at that for comfort.

Now when Frank P. reads that he will most likely be laughing his a%$ off, because my feelings about the GFDL have been made known on this board. I'm using the GFDL has a guide? A littlr further up I did say how well it was doing on the short range. Long range, we'll see.

I'm not taking it out of the Axis of Evil just yet.
