DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
At 400 AM CDT (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Hermine was
located near latitude 26.4 North, longitude 86.6 West. Hermine is
moving toward the north-northeast near 12 mph (19 km/h), and this
motion with a slight increase in forward speed is expected during
the next day or so. On the forecast track, the center of Hermine
will be near the Florida coast in the warning area tonight or
early Friday.

Maximum sustained winds remain near 60 mph (95 km/h) with higher
gusts. Some strengthening is anticipated, and Hermine is expected to
be a hurricane by the time landfall occurs.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 140 miles (220 km)
to the east of the center.

The estimated minimum central pressure from a NOAA Hurricane Hunter
plane was 996 mb (29.42 inches).

GFS MODEL SHIFTS LEFT

We are a long way from having this settled in terms of track, behavior, and weather outcome. All of this hinges on the upper low to the west and how the hurricane reacts to it. This we may not know for awhile yet. Meanwhile the GFS went left on the mid run cycle with the tropical storm tucked in further west northwest.

The mid run NAM model lines up with the European ovenight which was further south.

We are going to be dancing every run of this for awhile. It think at least we know nothing of consequence happens at least into Saturday evening. Also what will be key will be the speed of Hermine and when landfall occurs. This will ultimately effect how far north Hermine gets. The puzzle continues.
