This is the ensemble model forecast for Hurricane #Lee through next weekend (9/17). Lee is expected turn to the north-northwest next week. Model guidance is in good agreement about this turn, but concerns remain around how far west #HurricaneLee gets before heading north.
I like the trend here for USA, but too early to say for sure and put up tighter goal posts. #lee - Jim Cantore
