The strike probabilities decreased for Ft. Myers and Naples by 1 percentage pt, but remained the same for Marco Island (7), Key West (9) and Tampa (5). The NHC also added the entire eastern seaboard to the wind probability table with a chance of tropical storm for winds all the way to Canada.

Does that forecast track re-verify what the GFDL was showing earlier today? If it's ON the East Coast of Florida, than landfall appears to be on track with the 11am advisory. Hm.

well to be fair

and
http://www.boatus.com/hurricanes/hurricane_forecast.asp

i guess i see what it is, so yeah same. Not further north... But the fact that they expect it to be THAT sharp is kinda far fetched imo, i don't think of a ENE as it suggests.. i dunno though we'll see

Call me unexperienced but after reviewing the lastest model tracks and water vapor loops over the US I see Wilma landfalling near Tampa and exiting neat St Augustine, closer to the LBAR. I know I was told earlier the the LBAR is a statistical model and is not reliable. My question is why are they still using it. The steering currents from the north are not looking like they are dipping south as predicted. I know there are other things I do not understand, but sometimes things are not as complicated as some may think. What is the possibility that I am right?

Landfall suggestions? [Re: Colleen A.]
      #59819 - Wed Oct 19 2005 10:53 PM

Colleen, I'm with you on that thought and theory. The GFS still has about 1.5-2 hours before the data run is completed. I think the next GFDL run at 06Z (2AM EDT) should include ANY possible changes.

An afterthought about Jim Cantore and landfall. Jim is very mobile. Even with a camera and Satellite truck. More mobile than most families. So please don't count on any specific point being the Landfall point.

Jim was 40 miles East of Katrina's landfall point. I highly suspect that was an intentional mislocation, due to Katrina's surge effects.

You could very well be right, but I hope not. Tampa Bay is not off the hook on this at all.

Appears that the drier air is really getting sucked in at this point and inhibiting sustained intensity.

The track is basically the same, but the time frame has changed to much later. Landfall Sunday AM rather than Saturday PM.

I think, in this moment any landfall suggestion is just a wild guess ... Thay talking about moving on NE in next 24-36 hours, and all we know to this models will change several times before lanfall ... Like moderator says .. everyone south from Tampa should be ready, but ,making prediction in this moment just make people more nervous then they should be - yet ..

Possible lanfall on Yucatan will change cat and landfall position too ..

NO ONE knows when Wilma will turn, and in what direction ...
