Opehlia has basically been one of the easier storms to forecast. Still going to brush the carolinas with TS force winds and hurricane force over the outerbanks then move NNE-NE near eastern Long Island and brush Cape Cod. There is a chance it might go further out to sea but this has been my forecast for the past 5 days now. The system has been moving slightly slower then I forecasted though last week. 95L should become a TD in a day or 2 movement will be difficult after 3 days as many models show a trough over the eastern carribean N towards bermuda. Also possible 96L in a day or 2 N of puerto rico should swing Sw then W and be near hispaniola by the weekend.
