I'm not trying to, i just think that the whole line of following the models to a "T" is problematic. Hurricanes do weird stuff. All the guidance and models in the world can't predict some of the things hurricanes do.. remember 1985 i think? elana? It looped back at us and then went away again... (if i remember right, i was like 10-12 years old at the time)

Yeah I have a degree in Meteorology. I nailed 14 of the storms last year to within 50 miles for 3 days out or more. I wish though i can nail the winter storm snowfalls...lol that would be great.

Hey Colleen,, well they are all saying Mobile - Panama City beach. I dont see anything more then that. Currently I have the Panama City 1 still cause of the shape of the ridge. Also notice the impulse dropping through Tenn right now.
I wouldnt be surprised if just before landfall up there a NNE jog happens. Also shocked if it does tomorrow.......

Hell to pay if this thing comes within 50 miles of the coast.All of these tampa stations were "it's not coming near us" attitudes could end up in deaths. We'll see, let's all pray it keeps on it's current track and doesn't hit the west coast of florida, or comes up it. That would be a horrible scenerio raking the whole coast line. Fox 13 met's have all but said "just don't go boating and it'll be nonsquential weather event for the viewing area's.
From the 1 AM EDT Advisory. edited...
HURRICANE FORCE WINDS EXTEND OUTWARD UP TO 65 MILES...100 KM...
FROM THE CENTER...AND TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS EXTEND OUTWARD UP
TO 175 MILES...280 KM.
That's basically 1 degree, lat. or long., on the Hurricane force winds right now.
And, nearly 3 degrees, lat. or long.,on the Tropical Storm force winds.

pressure is dropping down 1 mb to 973mb Fl windts 71kts. still think winds down pressure up at the 3 am advisory due to a longer than expected interaction with cuba.

Have a look at the 06Z models on this site http://twister.sbs.ohio-state.edu/text/tropical/atlantic/models/05070905
scroll down - the upper one is earlier - 00Z.
If I am reading this right (and I am VERY much the amateur) the models shift landfall back to the west - Gulf Port to Pensacola, hitting in 48 hours and at a much weaker 71 kts.
Thoughts?

Still moving NW, probably just slightly more N than W. Earlier today I could sort of make out the edge of the ridge. Looked like a west Panhandle hit to me, and that's what I'm sticking to. Seems that SoFla may be good after all

yeah it is just drifting to the NW. Not good gives it more time to get reorganized.

yeah the north jog probably was just that, appears to be back on course. It still wobbled while over cuba pushing it's path more west. Whether it corrects itself and starts going NNW then west coast of central florida is good.. much to the relief of the weather stations :P

yeah, that's definitely new. ships is spinning it down slowly from here. lots of the 00Z runs are in, though... they do nothing of the sort. still i'd like to know why it's killing off (something completely new). of course next time they run it, it might be back to the same old cat 3 hit.

The most northern position, BAMD, 31.3N 88.4W is near the MS/AL state line due East of Hattiesburg. That would be around 70 miles inland.

100mph! My calculator must be broken.
I saw 71kts on Vortex.
So much for the SHIP model intensity.

they must be going by pressure because 970 mb = about 104 mph
