Re: GFS 06Z Models Nudged East a little

Quote:

The latest 06Z models show a nudge to east a little which would keep the eyewall offshore until GA/SC. It could be a fluke run, but we shall see.


Yes, but if you live in the current forecast area, you should ignore 'minor' changes in the forecast and all of the models...minor changes won't help you much and depending on the change, may hurt even worse. Models are neat tools, but when the wind starts blowing, you don't want to be saying "...but the UKMET says this is just a shower....It *Can't* be the hurricane!!!" No, plan for the forecast, hope for the models that show it is a fish, but ACT on the forecast!
