Wondering About Hermine

Hurricane Fiona wrecked Puerto Rico and has passed on to wreck the Bahamas, but it's the next system that might be a problem for Florida. If it reaches tropical storm status it's likely to be called Hermine, and it's located right now east of the Leeward Islands and is likely to strengthen and head towards Florida. The big question is whether the storm will continue to strengthen as it crosses the Caribbean, or whether it will slowly fritter away and dissipate. The models are diverging on the storm's ultimate fate. The GFS model says the storm will strengthen. The NVG model said so too, but then changed its mind, and decided it will fritter away instead. So, who knows? We'll keep an eye on that.
