Great update last night:
Tom Terry with WFTV out of Orlando said at 11:00 that the hurricane is taking a more easterly track and moving further away from the eastern coastline and that the EGRR model is more right taking this out to sea! He said the US model (GFS) has been horrible predicting the path. There is a big low front coming down into Florida which “saves our bacon” and although this low brings rain to the east coast, the hurricane is moving further away from the coast line and the most anyone along the eastern coast anywhere will get is rough waves.
I haven’t been watching the Weather Channel but I imagine after all the ‘Direct East Coast Hit’ hype of the past week on their web site they are secretly sorely disappointed.
Surf’s up! Get out the boogie boards.
