Okay here is the Notice that will used in the case of a sever overload:(Just a little humor)
Due to Hurricane "*******" in the Gulf.

Hello all...I'm new here and find this topic interesting. I follow the models but of course do not live by them. I think as time goes by and elements of what the model is forecasting begin to come true, then you may be in store for something. With the NAM model, when the low moves over from EPAC or even when convection begins to form in the area noted by NAM then its time to really pay attention, until then they are just giving you an idea of what part of the waters you should look at.

No such thing as limited knowledge here...

geez, I hope so.....don't want to encounter any problems this season...
I will be paying even more attention this year since Myrtle Beach has closed several of its shelters.... which means I will hit the road on a moments notice.

Again, the NAM (Eta) is an inferior forecast tool for tropical intensity and track. The model is far less accurate with TC's when contrasted to the GFS (which gets mercilessly bashed...often times to prove it verifies).
As a rule, discard the NAM with virtually all warm-core systems.
Sidenote: while not tropical, the pending Nor'easter (interesting for June) is, IMO, grossly underdone by the NAM. Think the GFS verifies.

I do believe that the experimental NAM is the WRF-nmm/NAM (which will be made official next week), while the old NAM/ETA is the old one.
The new WRF/NAM does have its flaws-- see here.
