48-60 hours out and there are many solutions still on the table. No clue who will be correct. 

Yeah two camps. The slow crawlers up the west side of Florida the ones getting it across and back into the Atlantic. Which one caves?

 

Gefs spread has increased and now has a handful of members off the east coast. This is at 90 hours

Serious question since you're from there.  Let's say the worst surge scenario is avoided in the event of a landfall farther south.  What would 2 feet+ of rain do to the Tampa area?

it would be devastating.  To preface, much of the area has minor but disruptive flooding with heavy summer t-storms.  That much rain has no place to go.  The city/metro has extremely dense vegetation and tree cover (one research outfit rated Tampa the #1 city in the world for tree cover).  We obviously have tall palm trees but we have a lot of huge oaks. Massive amounts of trees and branches would come down on properties and streets, power outages would be extensive.  All that falling and standing water would do a number on structures.  With that stall easterly fetch would also push a ton of water around and carve up east facing shoreline.  I'm not a hydrologist so I'm sure there's plenty of other impacts on infrastructure and public health.

Overall, a sub-optimal amount of rain and scenario.

The current recon plant's final pass found 961 mb.

There has been a bit of a bend to the nw while this plane has been out there.  Every bit of movement to the west of north matters for the long-term track.  The 18z Euro moved into Cuba due north of where the center is now.

On radar, it may have wobbled but looks minimal. Also looks to have wobbled back on the NHC track. But agree on longer term path.

I see a deep trough that is digging and a rapidly intensifying hurricane directly to its south.  I am having a hard time seeing this getting further west.

 Right now it is near 83.6 W with 83.7 W the furthest west 11PM NHC point. So, this looks like it is right in the forecasted path.
