Latest forecasts have it making a sharper northwest turn than before. Apt to spare the Carolinas but put Mississippi and Arkansas more in play.
And notice Jose has drifted further north as well. If a good jet stream push comes along, it will miss the U.S. entrely, however the NW drift of Irma would make me think it will strike the mid-Atlantic states as a weaker storm.
Windy.com has Jose doing a little backward march before heading further WNW but stopping well short of the east coast and turning NNE and heading out just west of Bermuda.
