Sometimes when the models disagree this much I wonder if they're doing it intentionally because the DONT know where Irma will end up yet but want everyone within the "cone" to prepare themselves.

That would explain why the gfs is on the east side of the cone and euro on the west side

Yes, and the NHC/NOAA has it at 21.4N 81.5W at 4:00pm on Sunday.

GFS - it's at 27.5N 78.3W

That's 477 miles apart center to center. That's really a big difference at this point.

There's a huge category five moving toward Florida and the models have no answers. There is only darkness. Errr...

We're going to take the Euro and run with it for now.

Oh and 914.3 off recon now.

basically in the next 24-72 hrs i'd say yes, they know where its going after that depends on a few things that will most likely put it on either side of florida

Amazing footage. I guess there is a reason to use props instead of jets?

Question about Jose forming behind Irma.

Is Jose more likely to be strengthened, weakened, or steered in any direction following in Irma's distant shadow or is there no effect in these scenarios?

generally one would expect irma to create a lot of upwelling from being a strong storm, and bring lots of cooler water up from the atlantic to the surface, weather or not that would put a damper on development is hard to say at this point.

check out the live feeds, winds are starting to pick up


Thanks man. I'm texting with a buddy that has a condo on Cruz Bay. A bunch of people are holing up in his place to ride the storm out. Cruz Bay looks to be about as protected as it's going to get on St. John. Coral Bay, on the other hand is going to get crushed.

If any of you have been to Foxy's Taboo on Jost Van Dyke it may be gone. It's completely exposed.

So is GFS now the outlier and Euro the most consistent with other models?
