Re: Ophelia Sideswipes the North Carolina Coast

very good chance it will get into the gulf but right now the wave (96l) should just be a watch and see for the next couple of days. Nothing should develop until maybe Sunday. (95l) should become a TD later today or tomorrow. I feel this will stay further s then forecasted, intrests in Puerto Rico and the islands might have TS warnings go up Friday or Saturday. Hard to give a path more then 3 days out. Ophelia is right on path. I rememberd JB last week had it going across florida into the gulf but he changed that last weekend as he can. Anyone who makes a forecast more then 3 days out has the right to change it and if they make a speculation on something more then 3 days out its just that.Remember the NHC changes their forecasts every 6hrs if changes needed to be taken.
