And it seems like they must have tweaked some models or something is causing more confidence in predicting storm paths this year because I don't recall seeing such a narrow cone going 3, 4, 5 days out ... we'll see.
Atlantic seasons start with the letter A, so this is the third named storm. The forecast track has the same uncertainty based on deviation in miles as previous years. This storm looks narrower because of its rapid forward speed, so the angle deviation is lower.
You're right. I meant to add in it was the first storm to develop well out in the Atlantic that had potential for more then significant rainfall if it makes landfall somewhere.

Yeah I thought that was a bit strange, too, but kind of dismissed it using similar thinking as your previous post that each period is assessed independently.
