As I agree with Scott, still need lots of more model runs to go, more Recon to put the information into the models. We are WAY out from a definite path. Keep your kits ready, be vigilant, stay prepared. This might be a long season.

The reason you’re seeing the models shift east is because it’s developing faster now. If it would’ve waited to develop further west near the Yucatan or in the Gulf then it more likely would go towards Texas. At least that’s the way I understand it. Of course it’s not set in stone though.

12z HWRF ends up with a strong TS or minimal hurricane near Houma late Monday night.

As with yesterday and the trend W, today is back E. Euro the last one up for this cycle...

12z ICON is into Louisiana too for the most part.
12z ICON actually shifted way west from its previous run and hits southeast Texas around chambers county but the system weakens rapidly before landfall so it doesn't show any windfield or significant moisture fwiw.

Canadian's solution is a depression into northern Mexico.

GEPS Ensemble take TD14 into Freeport as a weak system.

So far 12z Euro is much stronger coming out of the NW Caribbean/YP. Slightly to the N and E of 0z.

I was just gonna post the exact same thing. :lol:

Even though it's still early, when the NHC, Euro, and TVCN are all almost identical, that definitely gets my attention.
