Looks like Frances is GOM bound
Looking more and more like Frances will strike near the southern extent of my forecast area, West Palm Beach. Frances will cross Florida and emerge into the GOM. Tampa may yet see hurricane conditions.....MGC

Hope its alright if I chime in on this since I've been saying S.FLA or Keys then GOMEX....Its all about the ridge and spped of the storms. I never said the Ridge would not weaken the ? is when It will weaken early in track would allow a nw turn later in the track puts Frances through S.FLA or Keys into GOMEX then NW TO NNW I think the models are jhaving trouble picking an agreed time as to when the ridge breaks down... until then frances stays on the bottom of the ridge wnw or w
