it is well known that the 5 day usually isn't that great, but I believe it was requested of the NHC. while everyone here seems to be down on the 5 day forecast, on systems not so large as we have seen lately and not as unusual (we are breaking records with this one), the 5 day forecasts are often pretty good. they are very helpful for those like myself because it is helpful to see what the NHC is thinking. Everyone just needs to remember they are just what they say... experimental. They are really not to be used as official tracks just yet and (just as the models) should not be shown to the general public by the media.
I'm not sure if the media does this because I usually don't watch much of the tracking by the news, etc.
