Minor details but still..
Look at the spaghetti models. Each is unique, some quite different from the others. Watch the shape and direction of a hurricane's path and cone as it approaches the islands. It changes every day, sometimes several times a day.
When TomK posts a comment or answer to someones's question, the weather may have already changed by the time you read it, the storm already in a new, slightly different pattern.
Exactly, which is why I wrote "Norman has a well-defined eye as I write this and you can already see it's turning quite sharply to the north.". For those with comprehension issues, it means that at the time I wrote my post, Norman still had a well-defined eye which allowed one to see it had turned toward the north after it had moved towards the west for so long. The reason I wrote "as I write this" is obvious. The storm would change over time as it weakened and the eye would become less well-defined.
These are the GOES images I based this on:

But now the topic is anti-matter ray guns I guess.
