Hurricane Ike continues his westwardly movement. The models in the figure to the left hint at a possible emergence into the Gulf of Mexico, however, they also suggest a sharp recurve to the north near the Florida coastline due to a high pressure system “setting up shop”.
Hanna remans a tropical storm, through some strenghtening is expected. She appears to making a “bee-line” for the east coast, and should turn north and possible skate the eastern seaboard.
Josephine also is continuing west, and looks to be a candidate to become a “fish”, (a slang term for a storm that appears destined to head out into open waters). Sh could pose a threat to Bermuda, though her future track is even less certain than those questions surrounding Hanna and Ike.
