In my opinion (and I am either in the minority; or the extreme minority...[I assume only me] who thinks "we were all generally right".

The official forecast track from computer model guidance and The National Hurricane Center's official forecast tracks changed just as much than all that made a public and non-public forecast.

I understand it's all in fun, but still.

I probably sound ridiculous, but phrases/terms like, "eating crow," and "-removed-" have such negativity, joking or not, that I feel that bringing it to the table is worthwhile in some way.

When Ivan was in the E CARIB I said Mobile...but I also noted that that was just a gut feeling..as I began to have more scientific basis....5 days out I said Mobile, then went to Fort Walton Beach, then my final forecast was AL/FL state line before leaving for Atlanta. Then last night I was saying Baldwin County.

Hey...what's everyone got against Naples???? LOL

You don't know how happy and relieved I am that you are wrong. For those that picked Naples, I excuse you from eating crow.
