Yeah if there is any sort of good news out of this, it would be the fact that it is the GFS. However I also have noticed that for the 5th consecutive run, the GFS has taken Frances into or just just near South Florida. If it keeps on making model runs this way then perhaps should we take it more seriously or not?

Consistency in the long-range doesn't really mean much. However, we shall see what happens when it get closer.

What is more alarming is a lot of other models hint at the same thing. The UKMET slams this into Downtown Miami THURSDAY.
