It's all about the path, specifically models that project the path. They delete posts that aren't devoted to that topic.
Notice on Page 392 of the thread the conversation shifts suddenly when the Euro model is in agreement with the GFS version from several hours earlier, indicating an earlier move northward. Euro is the more respected of the two. If there hadn't been agreement from Euro, the GFS version would have been discounted.
Obviously this is subject to change again. But the trend is the friend, as some of the regular posters on that forum have announced. A few of them had predicted this easterly shift and expect it to continue in the same direction.
That would be great news for me in Miami but I'm not taking anything for granted.
