Is my mind playing tricks on me (again)? Looking at hurricane models...

They are showing this hurricane, after it hits land, turning left?

I don't recall any hurricane system ever making a left turn over land, just simply due to natural law, physics. The spin of the system naturally takes it to the right.

I've been away for a while... haven't paid too close attention to this system. Is there something I am missing?
John 14:6

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me."

1 Timothy 2:5-6

For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself as a ransom for all, the witness for this proper time.

Acts 4:12

And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.”

I've never heard of a hurricane's direction being based on the spin.  I get the point, but its based on being pushed by a high pressure system (or more likely, a front) or pulled by a low pressure system.
Or so I thought ....

I asked Co-pilot. Here's what is sez...

The direction a hurricane moves is influenced by several factors:
1. Steering Winds: Large-scale wind patterns, known as steering winds, play a crucial role. These winds are created by high and low-pressure systems in the atmosphere that push hurricanes along their paths, much like a cork floating in a river1.
2. Coriolis Effect: This effect, caused by the Earth’s rotation, influences the direction of the hurricane’s spin and its trajectory. In the Northern Hemisphere, the Coriolis effect causes hurricanes to spin counterclockwise and generally curve to the right. In the Southern Hemisphere, they spin clockwise and curve to the left23.
3. Bermuda High: In the North Atlantic, the Bermuda High (a high-pressure system) often steers hurricanes westward across the Atlantic. The strength and position of this high-pressure system can determine whether a hurricane will move towards the U.S. East Coast, the Gulf of Mexico, or out to sea1.
4. Interaction with Other Weather Systems: Hurricanes can also be influenced by other weather systems they encounter, such as cold fronts or other low-pressure systems, which can alter their path1.
These factors combined determine the complex and often unpredictable paths that hurricanes take.

Right now it’s missing Rossville about 3 or 4 counties to the East. Not a drop of rain yet.

We were projected to get rain beginning at 1 AM. Now saying we’ll get rain beginning about 1 or 2 PM with a huge band of the storm missing us to the East.

You realize that Helene is still a couple of hundred miles off the coast of FL and the weather you're experiencing now isn't really a part of Helene?  A cold front stuck west of us moved through.  That's why it's raining in N Ga now.

O/U on the number of caskets floating down the Flint and Chattahoochee?  17?  Will Helene top 1994 Alberto?

Proverbial "guy at work" told me that there is a high pressure system off to the right of the incoming hurricane, and a low pressure system to the left, which is what is expected to lead to the leftward turn of the hurricane once it is in Georgia.
