How accurate are those two tropical models for track vs the main global models?

At least compared to the HWRF/HMON the HAFS was about 15% better on track while it was in the experimental phase the last few years and only expected to improve. So any shifts they show should be noteworthy.

Not doing another long post right now but looking at the general trend in the steering pattern across guidance I update my odds to the following:

—50% LF risk Atlantic Canada with the bulk of that risk in Nova Scotia. It’s becoming increasingly likely that the second trough pulls this on an extended northward heading.

—30% New England (10% SNE/20% ENE) which is slightly more aggressive than the ensembles. 

—20% OTS because respect still needs to be given to eastward shifts or a sharper turn caused by the first trough. Either way, it’s looking increasingly likely a close call occurs even in this scenario for Atlantic Canada.

If the general trend west/more impactful continues through the 12z suite tomorrow, then I believe this becomes something more legitimate.

Based on the significant increase in 12Z EPS and 12Z/18Z GEFS US landfalls together with the threat largely being within only one week now meaning model trends are increasingly statistically significant, I'm increasing my US landfall chance from 10% back up to the 20% I was at originally.

Couple of the 18z GEFS appear to want to hook into central or western Long Island.

Quite strong too with baroclinic boost so could have some hybrid characteristics.

Wind field will likely be massive 

SSTs would also be warmer the further south it hooks as well delaying weakening.

a lot of these tracks in the GFS/GEFS remind me of Henri 2021 but stronger and more to the east. kind of an odd/rare track though

Track kinda, but Henri was a minimal hurricane at its peak and made landfall as a tropical storm. This could impact that area as an equivalent cat 2 hurricane with a massive windfield. I know it's weenie frowned upon here to bring up the certain S storm as comparison, but it seems that's the most comparable storm in recent history.
