Considering that's 5 days out, that's a pretty darn good consensus. You usually don't see that kind of clustering until right before landfall.

Keeps going west and they all show a turn toward the north at some point. You know what that tells us...someone's going to get it.

This is a major hurricane for sure. Take note of ships bringing it to 100 kts in 72 hours.

I just hope the ridge holds. I wont be happy till it's on land somewhere. I don't want anyone to get a bad storm but I just can't handle another one. We were really lucky but it was still very stressful. Were these models run with the new data from recon or didn't they report yet?? I haven't checked. I am going to call my Mom..she was concerned. This is good news :D

In my opinion, Dennis will follow more along the LBAR's track until it reaches the western tip of Cuba. After that...hard to tell.

Recon's data won't be in til the evening runs around 8pm EDT.

They ARE a high-altitude flight right and not just a normal low-level fix??

The models may shift back to the right again though. They usually do, right?

The word "usually" is not used in hurricane forecasting...

I note that the UKMET has shifted left in the long term now also. Looking like very strong consensus here.

This track is bad news. At the very least it'll be a huge rain event for Jamaica, and then those waters just south of Cuba are really warm. And crossing western Cuba won't slow him down much.

Bottom line is, this track is a recipe for a very significant storm in the Gulf.
