That CLP5 model scares the ... <insert 4-letter word of choice here> out of me! I don't like the BAMM models much either. BAMS looks like it's showing a WNW turn, then a WSW to SW turn, then a hard turn due north?!!? I've only see one hurricane in the Gulf do something like that (Elana in '85)... it's nerve-wracking. But that CLP5... go away CLP5!

That's the best news I've heard all day. Hopefully they will all get out in time, if it heads that way.

Clark & SH,
Thanks for posting great info. So basically almost bulls-eyed the loop current which pegs the heat content meter, but also had help from the South too. If would interesting to plot a satellite loop of over that heat content chart and watch the interaction.

SHIPS does not take land into account. The DSHIPS, or degenerate SHIPS, does and is used when storms do make landfall.

Looks like the NW jog that I saw was immediately followed by a SW jog. Could have been alignment of the images. Looks like there is a small break in the SE eyewall right now, but that's probably temporary.
Forecast landfall is 140mph (120 kts).. with peak intensity at 145mph (125 kts).
I think I'll stay clear of the Louisiana coast just to be safe, even though it is forecast to level Houston.

The eye should be leaving the KW Short Range shortly. Impressive site though.

I checked the CLP5 average error in nautical miles against the other models.
I don't know the time of this run...it's not listed. Other than "Current Run"
Model 12 hrs 24 hrs 36 hrs 48 hrs 60 hrs 72 hrs 84 hrs 96 hrs 108 hrs 120 hrs
CLP5 _66.1_ 116.4_ 175.4_ 231.1_ 296.0_ 457.9_ 628.5_ 957.5_ N/A__ N/A
The only models with more error in the mileage are:
XTRP-straight line plot!
COCE
Strangely enough. They rank the other models against the CLP5.
