 + * Long - medium range :  GFS and CMC - The GFS sniffed out the storm initially, and seems to do well with finding storms far out again this year, but missed the location of landfall and the second half of the path. The CMC was very close in intensity and landfall location, staying within 100 or so miles of the track early on and maintaining it. The other models seemed too weak or too strong with the low and the winds.
 +
 +  * Short Range : NAM - The NAM was the closest of the 3 SR models, on the 12 KM model only. The 3 KM model cannot be used due to it's mostly mesoscale uses and overdoes intensity every time. The 12KM NAM was closer on strength and was weak enough to be realistic, and had the most correct path.
 +
 +  * Strength : CMC - As mentioned above, the CMC was best with the storm pressure and close with wind.
