If that path holds, then Erika will not only be a non-event, she’ll lose her name as well. No storm - especially one blowing just 1009 mb - can handle traveling over Hispanola and half the length of Cuba without disintegrating.
Unless that forecast track changes significantly - or Erika slows to a crawl over the Florida Straits - this will be little more than a big rain bag event... and that’s not a bad thing.
...and of course just as I say all that, I check the NHC site and they have pulled the official track forecast back to the east a bit... so that Erika would parallel Cuba’s north coast before running up the center of Florida.
They still don’t believe she’ll regain hurricane force, so I’m sticking with the ‘rain bag’ line for now.
The Weather Channel will be very sad.
