It's too soon to say for sure, but we're not 16 days out anymore either, and we're seeing fewer and fewer model runs even close to the coast now.  I'm very skeptical of a SE hit at this point.  Jose needs to dissipate or recurve very soon for Maria to have a chance to strike the lower US, and that is looking more unlikely with each model cycle.

Yep, agree...EPS has shifted east past couple of runs.  EPS and GEFS are mostly in agreement on track of just off the coast.  Either Jose rapidly weakens for ridge to build or it moves NE like the CMC or it weakens rapidly and remnants head inland.

Jose is a mess and how much longer he can last is something the models will have a poor handle on, if he dies quickly or goes further east then expect a more westward shift with Maria in the models.....we are still talking 7-10 days out....way to soon to write off Maria....it will be Thursday or Friday when the models have a better handle on the Jose endgame before we can start taking model runs to heart IMO.....

GFS has Jose getting down to 953mb tomorrow.  Got some work to do if that's the case.

yeah, the GFS is whacked on pressures overall across the board....think it has Maria in the 910's off the SE coast one run....on the 12Z run at 60 hrs if has Maria which will be a Cat 4 by then at 961, and it has Jose as a 964 lol so yeah.....Jose only has one way to go really and thats down. Once he gets north of the GS and the shear turns more westerly he will decouple even more and die. The question then is how strong of a extra tropical system is left and where does it go...and this is all 4-5 days down the road.....so once Maria gets to the Bahamas we will have a better picture.....until then its hard to give a model run that has Jose at 975 in 3 days much credence especially since Jose's pressure is already above that and there is really a almost zero chance he strengthens from here on out, and will probably lose another 10-15mb at least over the next 24-36 hrs.... 

The 12Z GFS actually has Jose stronger at 3+ days than the 06Z did so the entire run is kinda trash cause chances are that Jose will be much weaker....thus how the players interact will be as well.

12zUK and CMC are way east...heading towards Bermuda.  GFS is wrong in handling of Jose yet it's the closest one to landfall...

If the ridge over NY on the GFS shifts east a little it would be ugly for someone on the SE coast.  Still a good spot for a landfall.

And at 228, it starts moving east. LOL  Basically sits 25-50 or so miles off the coast for 12 hours or so.

Surge would be ridiculous.....she was moving at a good clip to then slams on the brakes right before landfall so thats typical......still this run should lessen the oh Maria is OTS thinking some.....
