The European Model is hinting about the posibility of a storm forming by this coming Sunday in the area of southern coastal Georgia and tracking up the Eastern Seaboard. It is still early and the probability stands at 50%. It would be most prudent to keep an eye on the weather for the next few days.

The Baltimore TV weather mentions it in the Wednesday morning report. Might affect the Balt/Annaplois area Sunday into Monday, but it's "Too uncertain" this early".

Let me guess, you've been using the Weather Channel for forecasting?

No, the weatherman from our local ABC weather affiliate. He kind of likes to look into the future a little farther than most and has made a good number of early calls. I know there are boats heading South and a word for them to be on the lookout is the sensible thing to do. There is a large chance that the storm will not develop and we hope it won't.

What did Homer Simpson used to say? "Awww crap." Where's that good weather the whole Chessy crowd is always bragging about? Sorry Ron, had to vent.

The "European" model is just a modeling software for weather prediction that is a bit different than some of the models used by NOAA.
The "European" model correctly predicted the path of h'cane Sandy about 1 week out, well before the NOAA models started to agree on a shift to the west and the Jersey shore.
These 'models' just extrapolate from current conditions to predict weather "X" days away.
