Doing a Jeanne-like loop. Question is, where does he go when he comes out of that loop? Models are in disagreement, but it’s too early to put too much credence in any one model.

I'm no hurricane expert at all, especially compared to many on these hurricane threads. Does it look to you that meandering Jose may just head east out to the Atlantic?

Our local weather ‘guru’ (professional meteorologist who does commercial forecasting, but shares his knowledge when serious weather affects our area) has a pretty good discussion on Jose, the loop, etc. dated Sept. 11:

Unfortunately, DT makes a lot of spelling errors & they’re not corrected (summary is full of them) so you may have to do a little interpolation to figure some of it out. He’s been sick (ended up in ER) & I suspect on some pretty good meds so that doesn’t help the situation. Regardless, he’s the guy we all trust when we’re concerned about the weather. He really, really hates “hype”.
