Here is a question for the experts on here. When I looked at 7:00 it looked like Marco was going back around to the model from Friday night and a Saturday morning. That is where it comes to the coast and goes due west. If that is the case do we have a good chance of Laura doing the same thing? By that I mean going back to the models from Friday night and Saturday morning? If so, that will bring it in around Morgan City?

Center looks well south of cuba on there


The NHC official position is north of most of the heavier convection just inland from the South coast of Cuba about 30 miles west of Guantonomo.

David Bernard on Fox 8 NOLA said center could gradually shift away from the coast toward the heavier convection.

Many. Like people have said, hope Marco likely being not much doesn’t make people downplay Laura

It's taken from the past 5 years of storm tracks.

The problem - and I've discussed this in these threads before - is that the cone doesn't account for individual storm uncertainty. Sometimes they're quite certain what it will do and could theoretically draw a smaller cone. Sometimes they're quite stumped and could draw a larger one. Alas, that's not what they do.

Or you could just wait until tomorrow night when she comes off of Cuba and let them nail the forecast down for you at that time.

So when it comes off Cuba tomorrow night, not only do they get to take out the uncertainty of land interaction, but it also will fall inside of the 60 hour deviation period?

Well since you explicitly asked for me, I'll oblige.

They're largely independent of one another. Marco's forecast can look like it did Friday and Laura could be doing a differently thing entirely. They do share a common steering influence at the moment, but it's one of many factors.

ETA - But FWIW, Morgan City is still a possibility for Laura, and it always has been.

Yes, but once again, that's taken from the standard deviation of 5 years worth of storms. It doesn't necessarily mean squat for Laura, but the cone will reflect it nonetheless.
