NICK STILL MOVING W AT 7 KTS IN..........
the NHC 2 p.m. discussion. Probably won't be successful, but it looks like he's trying to duck under that trough to the N.

Nick seems to have a mind of his own.

Dixiebreeze,
There is little to no chance that Nicholas will not recurve. He is currently approaching a wall of substantial wind shear. As a strong cold front sweeps off the East Coast, Nicholas will be picked up and taken away from the U.S.
The little vorticity center that is situated around 12N 78W bears some watching. It is in an area of weak and declining wind shear, very warm SSTAs (>29C and 1C to 1.5C Above Normal), etc., so it has potential for some development. Working against such development is its fairly close proximity to land should it begin a drift to the south as is suggested by some of the computer guidance.
In any case, tropical analogs, seasonal climatology, and model guidance are all against its ever posing a threat to the U.S.

Shows a very broad 1005 mb low south of Cuba on the very last frame. Also shows one heck of an Midwest/Eastern Storm with a full latitude NEG TILT trough reaching down deep into the GOM as well.
Well ...
Take a look...
