Thanks. I'm sitting here in The Villages, FL. Most around here have done what they can to prepare had the earlier forecasts held; NOBODY is "standing down" just yet.
as a fellow resident of the Gulf coast (albeit, at least a little inland...), just wanna say be safe...
the latest models look much more favorable for y'all vs. what i was seeing everywhere yesterday... every little bit east helps, at this point...

Sorry man but this says differently but no problem
I dug a little further and there are tons of sources saying both. I now hate them all, as they are denying me the stability I need at a time like this.

While I don't consider the ICON to be a worthwhile model, it did shift south a good bit on the 12z run. This is only interesting since some of the 06z ensemble runs showed a bit of a tendency to shift south & west.

Beautiful scenery but totally screwed at this point. The surge could take you out even if you are in a well built structure. Total devastation is coming.

TWC just said no one knows what Dorian is going to do (track)
Nash Roberts would know

Hmmm, 12z GFS initialized with a stronger ridge over the top than what the 06z showed for 12z. Now to see if it makes any difference in the longer term.

if I did well on my TD weather exam... I believe a stronger ridge could mean a push back towards the west
but right now it's just 1 model run... gotta look for that to become consistent before any forecast track puts the storm back on Florida's shores

ZCZC MIATWOAT ALL TTAA00 KNHC DDHHMM Tropical Weather Outlook NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 800 AM EDT Sat Aug 31 2019 For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico: The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane Dorian, located a few hundred miles east of the northwestern Bahamas.
1. A tropical wave located about midway between the coast of Africa and the Cabo Verde Islands continues to produce a large area of showers and a few thunderstorms. Environmental conditions appear conducive for development of this system, and a tropical depression could form next week while the system moves across the eastern tropical Atlantic Ocean. Heavy rainfall is possible over portions of the southern Cabo Verde Islands during the next few days, and interests on those islands should monitor the progress of this system. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...60 percent.
2. A broad area of low pressure located over the southeastern Gulf of Mexico is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Some gradual development of this system is possible during the next several days while it moves slowly westward across the southern and southwestern Gulf of Mexico. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent. Forecaster Zelinsky

Yep.
Depends on how it breaks down for the long term but suggests Dorian might get a little farther west. There's still a lot of uncertainty on the track.

Hard to say long term, but anything that allows Dorian to move farther north in the short term would be good. A stronger ridge would keep it moving westward or even SW. This will play a role in where the slow down occurs.
This run does shift the system SW a bit but it is hard to pin that on any one thing without doing a deeper dive into the data.

Yep, a stronger ridge could change the whole game. That’s going to be one of the main things to watch.
