Quote: In the absence of steering winds, does anyone know whether any of the models will factor in ocean currents? The current in the Yucatan Channel off Cancun is apparently about three knots in a northerly direction this time of year. If winds aren't sufficient to steer her, might an ocean current influence which way Wilma goes?
Ocean currents do not have any influence on the track modeling for hurricanes...
