That orange one worries me. Only because they are been trying to get this thing turn to the north and it just keeps going west. And that orange one has it going more west then the others!
From what I read that model uses mainly historical information and doesn't take into account the current state of the atmosphere.

The one that goes farther to the southwest and then makes the huge bend to the right and hits New orleans head on!
ah gotcha. yeah i saw that one. I just treated that one as flawed since it was so different than the other models.
