Re: West Coast prep?

While the doomsday scenario of the 12Z GFDL is unlikely, it does seem to indicate that conditions will be favorable for significant strengthening if the system can spend a sufficient amount of time over water. The scenario where the system gets hung up near or over the peninsula would be bad news as far as heavy rain is concerned, but would potentially save someone from having to deal with a landfalling major hurricane at some point.
