I'm just the tiniest bit sceptical about the forecasted turn to the north. Unless I'm mistaken (please correct me if I am) the northward motion would be brought about by a trough. Well, this system is at a fairly low latitude, so there is some chance that it will avoid being pulled northward so suddenly (or at all - even though the chances of that are quite small). Since the models are a little iffy with our friend here, I can't help but think that the forecast will be a little problematic.

This may all be completely wrong, but it's just something I was wondering about.
