Pardon me, I was not bashing JB....I like him as a forecaster, always betting for the long shot based on pattern recognition. I believe that Jeane will be a hurricane and with complicated pattern at hand, nobody from Miami to North Carolina should take their eyes off her, since she will get trapped underneath the ridge. I have been storm tracking for 40 years, and have never seen such a difficult pattern to forecast since the '60's. And the western caribbean will be heard from in the next 5 weeks....that's if the atlantic slows. Lots of tracking ahead....hope they don't impact anyone. Now to put my fence back up and cut up the trees!! Cheers!!
