We've had run of the year and now biggest a-hole run of the year in the same day.
Still a lot of details to work out at least.

That
should promote weakening due to a substantial increase in shear

Holy shite. That would be bad.

The exact path can be at least.
Prominentwon, Slow, and the rest of the LCH people please don't get too worked up over that run.
We're only at the point of getting the general progression down. Goes north, drifts west, turns north and then more NE outside of the 5 day range seems to be the recipe at this point. Weak steering means there's a lot of possible launching points for the N and NE run. Including over land in Texas.
Right now, I'm just looking at how the players causing the turns are trending run to run and getting that framework in place.

I view them as more of an umpire... if it's a ball, it's a ball, if it's a strike, it's a strike. The fact that the next 14 pitches may be a ball, doesn't mean that they can't call this pitch a strike, if it is a strike.
And if a storm meets the characteristics to be a named storm, it's a named storm, no matter what happens 3 days from now.

Subtropical Storm Alpha Special Discussion Number 1
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL242020
430 PM GMT Fri Sep 18 2020
The small low pressure area that has been rotating around a larger
extratropical low in the far northeastern Atlantic has become better
organized this morning. Moderate-to-deep convection has persisted
near the center since last night, scatterometer data shows a closed
40-kt low, and radar images from Portugal show a definite organized
convective pattern. While the system is still in the cyclonic
envelope of the large extratropical low and likely neutral- or
cold-core, it has developed enough tropical characteristics to be
considered a subtropical storm. The initial intensity is set to 45
kt in accordance with the scatterometer data, assuming some
undersampling for this small system.
Little change in strength is forecast until landfall in Portugal
during the next couple of hours. Global models show the small low
moving northeastward at about 15 kt for the next 24 hours before
dissipating over northern Spain or the Bay of Biscay. The track and
intensity forecasts are consistent with the consensus guidance.
Additional information on the hazards from this system can be found
in products from the Portuguese Institute for Sea and Atmosphere at
www.ipma.pt.
