Hmm.. well now it appears that if it survives... it may be a threat to the GOM soon... and that the GFDL is out on its own.

Lots of land though to pass over. A98E is the best for it to strengthen steadily. That's a track very much like what Lili did.

Scott,

Have you updated your model page? I see references to a GOM threat but can't access the latest model runs. Any suggestions, please?!

Thanks!

Local met seems fairly confident today that this system will be picked up by the approaching cold front and turn out to sea.
