Friday 10aEDT/AST - Southwesterly wind shear eroding the West, SW & South sides of storm. Air recon finding pressure rising slightly. Winds on the NE - E still very intense. So likely paused strengthening for the morning as it battles shear.

Loop past 4hrs. I was staring at that outflow boundary. Looked like it was going to get Miami but it totally faded away. Dry air or just not enough steam
Latest Euro shows a Florida hit, looks like into the Fort Lauderdale area. Wondering if the 5 PM update will shift west?
Seems like the "west" shift is the new trend. If NHC shifted slightly before and now Euro shows more of it, the NHC will follow. I think what happened is the center of it reformed and formed west of previous center. So models adjusted the outcome accordingly to the upper air pattern and front, ect.

Euro decides to hit Florida and hug the east coast
Thank gosh it's late July and not September. Isaias would definitely have turned into a major hurricane if that were the case.
