Judge Hidalgo says we should have a clear answer on tomorrow morning of the path but We should prepare as if we get a direct hit.
Says they have been in contact with NHC.

Not much change in the cone. I will be interested to see the EPS though
Very close to Beaumont. I'll be interested in the Ensembles.

I still think the 12z suite will end-up being an east outlier, and we'll start to see another shift back to the west.
What makes you think a shift back to the west is likely?

Euro initialized well, but then look at the 6hour location. It's too far to the North and East. It appears Laura will exit Cuba south and west of the models plots. Just extrapolating that along the same curve, it comes up towards Galveston.

Yikes.. She needs to get away from land to really get some consensus. Houston Mayor and Judge are saying we won't have an idea until tomorrow.

12z Euro initialized well, however, comparing to 06z Euro ensembles to where the actual center is: still on the southern envelope.

I think, and I am an amateur, they move it a little more to the West in the 4. Just my 6 cents lol

So since when did the NHC throw out King Euro in their track thinking? Curious to know why it appears to be weighted less of late.

It might be...and I am speculating, the the UKMET has done so well in the past this season, but I am not sure they have ever discounted the Euro.

Absolutely the NHC forecasters utilize ensembles. The FSU Super Ensembles (non public) has been mentioned for years in the disco.

I want to personally thank all the pro and amateur mets that are on this board. You all are what makes this board so good. Thank you for answering our questions, guiding us with the models and helping us understand the complexities that is meteorology. These next few days will be nerve wracking for all us.
