those who say FL is safe...well...need to have there head examined, FL as well as the entire gulf is not safe until this thing is gone.

Actually some of the latest runs turn the storm more westward when it gets into the Gulf of Mexico

im very very concerned about this storm system because of what was in the 5 p.m. Discussion and they said "Model guidance is in tight agreement on this general
motion continuing for about the next three days...with the primary
steering mechanism being the subtropical ridge currently centered
over the northwestern Bahamas. Beyond that time...a weakness in the
ridge is anticipated to develop...as a mid/upper level trough
sharpens over the eastern United States. This should induce a
gradual decrease in forward speed and a turn toward the northwest
late in the forecast period.

it's all down to timing...just remember that when Charley and Ivan were in the same position as Dennis, things changed quite a bit once they got closer to landfall :eek:

Don't forget...

Charley's sharp right turn in the Gulf was due to an unusually strong August cold front. I don't really see any of those on the horizon...

That is so true! I remember our local met out of Pensacola actually showing Charley heading in our general direction before that cold front came in. And that front was a powerful one - enough to make you grab a sweater in the morning. It felt like an early autumn!

Dennis is not going anywhere, except for the mid-Louisiana coast, over to Destin Fl. I say everyone else is going to be out of the woods. Come back and read this prediction on Monday July 11th.

Oddly enough Max Mayfield said the MM5 Model was one of the best models they had during the season last year at the Florida govenor's hurricane conference.

Anyone check out the latest UKMET? It's the model most recently run and plotted on the maps: http://www.wunderground.com/tropical/tracking/at200504_model.html

The curve is starting to appear....


edited to put in proper model name - my bad :wink:
