Yeah Hazey ... in terms of modeling behavior?  I have never in 30 years of using any of them seen a system at that distance of time be modeled like that. 

Crosses absurdity into the realm of ...I don't - perhaps it was a hiccup run..  Things tend to normalize due to granularity at that range - though hmm... I'm almost thinking they don't spread the grid in the extended anymore.  Ever since the went to NCEP's upgrade to the 2 peta-flop computing power I've noticed that things are less fuzzy out there - doesn't say much for accuracy, no..

897 ..that's a top (or bottom ironically) fiver in pressure for the Atlantic Basin...

The fact that the models are hinting that Irma blows up may actually spare the US from a hit. Strong canes tend to move more poleward vs weaker systems. Best case scenario albeit probably unpopular, is for it to split the uprights between the East coast and Bermuda. Way too soon to call that though.   

I already called it.

Smart money on a whiff.
