All of the models are completely different at that point. we look at when the models agree. and when they disagree, we say why does that one do better? there is just no way to tell you right now where this goes after 48 hours. really good number right there. great position right there. after that, the wind dies off. the steering currents die off. and then all of a sudden things begin to get loopy. that's when we will continue to watch the potential for myrtle beach, maybe charleston. what we do know is we have taken a lot of the rain up here and put it a little bit farther down into the south....

At least over waters. we had significant beach flooding and erosion. when you look at that system and you're losing steering currents, what's out there that can help us out? high pressure being so close to the eastern seaboard with clockwise motion could push thisle system to the coast. fit loses its grip, it slides away. that's what we want to see. we can look at the european model and the u.s. model. this is one of the best that we've been using lately. that's in blue. red is the u.s. model. brings it up monday off the carolina coast. this is eight days out. european still wants to hug the n...

More than it was a few hours ado go. >> if we're talking about a strengthening storm, there's nothing in its path. land is what tears the storms apart. it's got the gulf stream ahead of it, okay, the infamous gulf stream waters of 84 degrees. it's fuel to strengthen the storm. nothing in the path, taking a look at the steering currents. the cold front moving across the east is what is going to push it out to east. >> that's why it helps people in boston. >> absolutely. still keeping a close eye on it. it it moves west of the cone of in certainty, more impact. we'll see coastal surge as well as...
