Current GFS model run. It trends a bit more eastward than the Euro, which runs Irma right up the middle of Florida.

For sure. I don’t expect her to be a Cat 5 at landfall here on the mainland, although I guess it’s possible. But unlikely.

Prayers to all in the Caribbean today.

In Panama City on Friday night we are supposed have 63 degree low temp. Very unseasonable for September and have lived here my whole life.

Air temp does not matter. Hurricanes feed on water temperature.

WeatherBell seems to be more spot on earlier than the other. I like their forecast tracks.

That's OK, you can't fight the establishment - or on second thought, can you?

Anyway, here's the latest. I can't tell whether this is Irma's projected path or my granddaughter's scribble she brought home from kindergarten today.
