...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.
This has been the most infuriating and exhausting storm to observe since... satellite.
