Even though Im not a fan of the ETA it I feel has the right idea on the movement of Jeanne for THIS RUN. ETA and of course other models will change from run to run but its showing when crossing florida a general turn to the wnw then nw in the gulf and NO NNW or N turn. I mean lets face it, didnt we learn from on seeing what Bonnie did. Should we have seen that since Bonnie went more ene then shouldnt turn sooner? Well with going into LA,TX boarder he basically went wnw-nw around the ridge diving into the midatlantic region. Shouldnt Jeanne do the same instead of going more NNW or N almost immediatly when getting near the coast. Where is the strong trough that is suppose to do that? Its just that its forecasted to move around the ridge and the ridge is suppose to orient in a more NNW-SSE fashion, which i feel it will be alittle flatter cause there is no strong trough it squeeze the ridge. There is a trough that will go thru the great lakes region into the NE over the weekend but nothing I feel to really cause such a turn. My forecast remains the same with it coming near WPB then moving inland with a gradual turn towards the NW over the state then (giving some respect to the eastern models) a turn more towards the north over central florida. I wouldnt be surprised more if it doesnt get into the gulf. Im not saying it will defidently come inland but I dont see it missing (if it does) florida by more then 50 miles. My track on the 11am is just alittle west of theirs.

People in this area are worried ever since , and I think with good reason. We've seen firsthand how unpredictable hurricanes can be. If there is a chance Jeanne will go across the state and affect the west coast, I hope that sources like or begin to speak of it earlier rather than later, giving us more time to prepare.

Charley hit in the middle of the day.. we had just eaten my "birthday dinner". Waited until it was over to have birthday cake.. by then the candles were a necessity!
In 1976, my husband and I went through a Supertyphoon (Typhoon Pam) on Guam .. 12 hours, 200 knot winds with an eye that took 3 hours to pass over. The first part of that one also hit in the middle of the day. We could see the whole thing from the school where I was a shelter nurse.
So it does sometimes happen in daylight!!

Charley hit at 3:30 in the afternoon.
You can see how far MissBecky and I live from each other...30 minutes as the hurricane crawls...

Unfortunately most people probably couldn't find . And despite all the has said about not focusing on the line of the track, people still do just that. I know a girl who, on the afternoon hit, decided to watch a movie instead of keeping the local news on. She told me that the last she had heard, the track took the hurricane into Tampa and not Ft. Myers, so she decided things would be okay. I'm not saying everyone is like that, but many people will wait until the last minute to make preparations. If they are urged to do so earlier, hopefully some will listenand take action.
I agree that your posts are great, Lois. Thanks!

scottsvb has been uncanny with these storms recently...will give you a free pass on Earl...we all thought that would be something...
been trolling my major sources for predictions & updates, and unfortunately, the news isn't good...and a lot in line with what scott has been saying.
With the Haitian death toll rising steadily, and the Bahamas her next target as a likely CAT III, I don't think Jeanne is going to be on the list in 2010...

What are the latest estimates for how fast ...er... Jeanne will be moving when she makes landfall? Not windspeed, but forward motion?

Well I got the general direction on earl, just I thought it would slow down some to let it organize. It didnt. So I count that as a X. I get 1-2 a year. So im due again before the season ends maybe.

Maybe I've just been distracted by all of the post-Ivan activities in my neck of the woods, but I haven't heard much about what the Superensemble is doing with Jeanne. As I recall, it was the model that first moved many meteorological eyes toward the FL/AL border during 1.0. Does anyone know what their latest projections are leaning toward?

...scott & Richard & Colleen sure burned the midnight oil and kept things from getting crazy...thanks to you guys...
Scottsvb and Colleen were the driving force last night. My night was yesterday I did wake up about 6:30 and couldn't resist the urge to toss in a thought or two during the moring though. Shoot, you gotta sleep too guy. Glad to see you back online, and like you, am truly happy to see SirCane back online.
