Thanks . . . for the link. The model is a little off. The front is further out to sea than the GFS predicted. The surface plot shows weakness in the extreme SE and H over NC & VA. That other short wave is up near Canada still as of today. This could mean a turn more away from the EC around 60W unless the high builds in more than expected and the front does not make it to the coast in time and the current one ummm . . . . it is September to have such deep S intruding fronts. Of course I did not sleep at a Holiday Inn last night.

If Florence continues to hold at the current intensity for some more time and if her observed track drops below 300 degrees at some point, then I would give it a SLIGHT chance of staying south of the latest front and then being forced south by the ridge of high pressure forecasted to form later this weekend off the East Coast. That's like a 1% chance...
Sorry, a bit off topic, what do you think the chances are of Florence being the next storm of 2006 to be forecasted as a major hurricane, yet not even achieve hurricane intensity?
