Quote: The 18z models are showing the ridge breaking down again and Bertha turning out to sea around Bermuda. I still think the only land area in danger will be Bermuda.
I wouldn't bite to hard into any given 18z model solution. That, and the 06z for that matter, are the coarser model runs of the 24 hour cycle. 00z and 12z have finer resolution and therefore, superior data ingests. Treat the 18z runs as just another ensemble member.
