Has anyone ever noticed the warning note in the text box? Sounds like they don't have much confidence in their product. I've highlighted it in yellow.

So what could possibly be confusing about this mess? It looks like the work of a toddler with a box a crayons. It tells me nothing except that the experts and their computers don't know any more about what's happening than I do. I could randomly guess the track and be as accurate as all of these projected paths.

Throwing darts on a map probably works just as good. It re-enforces my belief that global warming, climate change, whatever, is crapola too.

You got your degree in meteorology just where again?

And how many years have you been working in weather forecasting?

When the model tracks are so tightly grouped together and overlapping that you can’t tell which one is which—this is called, “All the forecast models are in agreement.”

This is merely a reflection of what various models say. The area highlighted by you seems to be what is a legal protection for anyone who thinks the South Florida Water Management District is the final authority on what will happen. They aren’t. They’re merely providing the viewer with what various hurricane models are predicting.

“It re-enforces my belief that global warming, climate change, whatever, is crapola too.”

You might want to read about “confirmation bias”. It might also be worth reviewing afterwards how the storm track lines up with the projections.

I’m also a CAGW skeptic in terms of how much warming will happen, but the basic science of AGW is sound and has been known for over 100 years.
