Re: Tropical Storm Wilma Forms in the Western Caribbean

12z GFS is now available through 7 days -- clips the NE corner of the Yucatan, then turns the system hard to the ENE, passing just north of Key West and ultimately over Miami, then up the coast between the Outer Banks & Bermuda. It digs a very, very sharp trough in over the upper midwest & Ohio River valley, leading to the system being captured and accelerating to the E & NE. This is still one from Louisiana on eastward with plenty of time to watch it before pinning down where it may go in the Gulf.

ECMWF is run every 6hr, but most of their output is not publicly available in the first place. The CMC is run every 12hr and the UKMET has grids available every 12hr but points available every 6hr.

As an aside, the Orlando Sentinel has started syndicating the main page articles from the CFHC on their weather webpages. For an example, see the right-hand sidebar from http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/weat...-home-headlines. Good stuff.
