Let's see how the Euro does in the short term, it doesn't have the center getting north of 20N until after 10pm tonight.  GFS does seem to have the right track for today, making landfall on SE tip of Cuba at 5pm and getting to about 20.5N at 10pm tonight.

Starting to see Cubas affect on him that left side looking rough....eye look stout on radar still though....surprised that east side recovered so fast, Haiti has to be getting ****ed up right now so bad.....

It is going to be really hard for this thing to make any sort of meaningful inroads inland into the Carolinas (discounting the FL landfalls and stalling scenarios for now).  I think we can start to feel much more confident about that.  I would expect a clouds, possibly a few showers and breezy conditions around this area.  Downeast and his crew are going to do much better in the rain/wind area, which really goes without saying, even if the thing stays offshore slightly.

agree. would have to speed up a good bit to give us any decent impacts.

The drought just goes on for most of the southeast. I wish this storm would weaken to a TS and get into the gulf and move up through GA and the TN-NC border area.

Yeah, I wish it would get a move on.  I wonder if Nicole will have any effect on the track.  Could it send it more northwesterly or more northward an offset some of the kicking being done by the incoming trough?

You need to get one coming NNE out of the eastern Gulf.  But like I said yesterday, storms coming out of the Gulf usually head north until they clear the SE.  Then, they make the turn.  Don't know why that is.

Way to early to say this......IF it takes the current NHC track RDU gets solid TS conditions.....the models are gonna move around a lot still the next few days a track over eastern NC is still on the table for sure.....this thing has TS winds extending out 150 miles in all directions .

Well, so far today what I take is that a FL landfall is in the cards and if the trough coming into the west coast doesn't dig then Matty can stall and cripple someone.  Personally, I still lean more towards the whiff east then the stall off GA/SC coast.

If you blend the GFS/Euro and you get a slower Matt like the Euro with a trough that digs like the GFS you could have a scenario where it grazes Fl and misses NC/SC wide right by a good margin.

Yeah, I hear you.  But it seems like the subtle trends today are to soften the trough a bit and slow the system a bit.  I don't favor a stall or an east coast of FL it, but I do think a scenario kind of like Pack laid out below is looking more and more likely.  It slows enough so as not to gain too much latitude and then the flatter trough kicks it east, wiffing the entire coast.

Look at the difference between the GFS/Euro at day 3, I don't think I have ever seen that big a difference at this lead time.  

 

You have clearly not followed winter weather with us before! :P

Seriously though, the Euro could have had some problems today.

Oh I agree, but it's something to look at as we wait for the GFS.

Truestory!  5pm advisory has winds at 140.  Haven't seen the track cone yet.

Edit:  Track out now.  Slowed by 6 hours and adjusted slightly to the east.  Maybe makes landfall at Hatteras...maybe.

The Euro is all over the place though, its the least consistent model so far....the NAM actually makes the most sense because that looks familiar, its just how the storms always seem to end up going when they come in like this......that doesn't mean it right by any stretch but we have seen storms more or less run just like that time and time again once they get off SC.....its either go do similar to the NAM or miss to the east....

Looks like they have it tracking through the western Bahamas not far offshore of West Palm Beach, then 50ish miles offshore of Daytona Beach now as a major hurricane, with a curve and a potentially a landfall near Cape Lookout.

The cone has it staying offshore until hitting the outer banks. Then a possible landfall on cape cod. No real effects from Raleigh and Columbia and west on that track.

I think something like the NAM actually looks good.  I'd just adjust a bit east, at this point.  But who knows.

Thanks guys!  Yep, just edited my post above.  Also, the TS force wind probs declined from around 40% in the Triangle to about 10-20%.  It's all just noise at this point anyway, really.
