12Z GFS has a surface low forming near Panama in 120 hrs
It is generally accepted that if anything shows under 144 hrs, its likely to be real.
At this point, has it traveling north over Cuba and slamming the Florida Gulf coast.

I am sure track and intensity will vary on future runs as the models hone in on this.
Stay tuned.

It ends up going northwest and makes a direct hit on Tampa Bay.

Fantasyland on the 18z GFS, but it still manages to bring a hurricane to the Florida Keys for Labor Day weekend (after first visiting just about every island in the Caribbean). pic.twitter.com/VVGW8f4K3a
