Just got back from watching JB streaming viedos. Agree with him totally on Jeanne and the whole right bias model thing. I have said this before and I'll say it again, I didn't think that Jeanne would re-curve because of backing down. The bases their forecasts on models and US models to boot, one of these models being the , which I think has some problems in the whole where it's going to go thing but works great with the motion. My thinking for Jeanne is that she will continue her current motion (maybe even to NNW) and then as backs down turn west into Florida.
Those two waves coming off the coast of Africa look like trouble. The longer it takes for the first wave to develop then the more likely it is to hit the United States, we'll see. By next week we could very well be seing Karl and Lisa.
Also, is still pounding parts of the southeast with rain. That high coming down from Canada and the remmants of will spell GALE for the Mid-Atlatic states Fri and Sat. This will give them a preview of what was like. Hope everyone's okay that was in the path of and Jason's family.

You want to see "to-the-right" model track biased? Look at this link of from beggining to end....I think it the same with as well....i think Bastardi has a point!

>>> How reliable has Accuweather been?
Nobody got right until 5-6 days out...but accuwx had a better handle on it than , in my opinion.
I think JB sees everything heading for Fla now as well as the GOM...let's hope he's wrong.

Can someone post a link to a satellite loop showing the eye actually making landfall? The loops I've been looking at this morning are "jumpy," and don't show the eye until after it is alreay on shore.
Thanks!

Can anyone explain to me why Accuweather would show a different path for Jeanne than the ? I mean seriously, how irresponsible is that? The storm may do that in the end but how irresponsible is that at this point? As far as I'm concerned they have lost all credibility with me.I believe strongly that the 's path is the one that should be followed. I'll go to my grave saying they know more about these storms and where they will go than anybody! Why in the world would Accuweather want to put something up there that gets people, who are already on edge, worried more than they already are. My opinion...they are totally lame! By the way, my family in Ft walton Beach suffered some down trees, missing shingles and no power since 5pm yesterday. I know things will be much worse there than that but I'm thankful that they were personally spared anything really bad.

Very good on , but Bastardi is their chief forecaster on these and he is arguing against the models as being generally biased to the right of the actual forecast path. Part of this forecast is also based on the "noodels wiggling around" on the model runs past 48 hours and some of them retuning the remnants to the SW which Bastardi said will pull Jeanne westward over the Florida into the GOM
Believe me when I say we don't need that...I drove across Florida to Pt St. Lucie and back yesterday...what you see especially in the 30 mile wide swath is not pretty...absolutely every building with damage even 75 miles inland in that path...something we will see in Pensacola, et. al today, unfortunately

Keith, I can assure you that nothing the Mid-Atlantic states see from 's remnant low will in any way REMOTELY resemble what those who just went through hell faced...
Truck on bridge...disconcerting pic to say the least...how was a truck even ALLOWED on that bridge? One can only hope it was there well before it collapsed and it was stalled or something and the driver made it out safely...
I'm sick to my stomach after this...

Well, if the models are a bit to the right then that would make it go into around central florida and skirt up the coast. Wouldnt it?

The missing loops has to do with the eclipse and the satelites not taking photos for about 2 hours. It has been explained in more detail on previous posts.

IIRC didn't hit while the sat eclipse was occuring, hence the jump in the images?

I don't like this one. I'd like to go with what's behind door #3, please!
I'm in SW Florida and am planning to keep the lanai furniture and stuff inside a while longer.
Door # 3 may be worse. If we can keep Jeanne along the coast of Hisp and Cuba at least she won't grow to a monster.

The pic is AP copyrighted so I don't know if I can paste it.
The pic is in the pubic domain once published or broadcast. As long as it appears on a free info site (like this) there is no problem. Always a good idea to credit the publisher. AP tends to chase folks that profit from their work.

OK, I anticipated Jeanne. I'm anticipating "Karl". But what is this about a possible "Lisa"?! For Pete's sake! There is no rest for the weary. What happens in December that brings an end to this"?

I think that's what they are doing, I'll have to check back on them again but I think you're right.

Thanks for your post. Potential for big long term forecast error here. Ultimately, we know Jeanne will take her own path, but at least is usually the most accurate.
