Today's Projection, Polish your "H" plan
 

Perfect timing. Supposed to be leaving for Destin Saturday morning and bringing the kids to Disney World on Tuesday. :pissed:

I would continue with the plans myself, until the rain bands started hitting, and then turn and run.
As long as my "H" plan at home was fulfilled.

Can we change it from "H Plan" to "Preparation H"?

That is what I use after I use the "H" Plan.

I hope that storms dies an early death.

I heard the EURO model's were the most accurate.

According to most people in the industry—or just plain statistics—the European model is the best, and has been for years. Almost any report will describe it as the best. Technically, you want to look for the acronym it goes by—ECMWF—which stands for the European Center for Medium-range Weather Forecasting.

Invest 99 is still looking very ragged on satellite imagery Friday morning and the short term development chances are really small. However, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) is giving it a 60% chance over the next 5 days to put itself together. Upper level winds (shear) have been really hurting the storm for more than a day and that's why the development chances went down from 80% Thursday. If the system can hold together, the shearing should decrease significantly by late Sunday or Monday as it gets into the southeastern Gulf of Mexico.
