I bet Josh is really kicking himself right now...

 

I bet he is. This is a stormchasers dream.

 

No stormchaser is going to take a chance chasing in Bermuda.  It's not like you can go island-hopping if there's a 40-50 mile deviation.  Too big a risk that it will just be a breezy, rainy day.

 

Besides, Josh is a little snooty about chasing anything around 35N... not a "true" TC to him. ;)

If you read his post earlier today he said that he wanted to go to Bermuda but basically ran out of time.

It certainly is all or nothing when it comes to Bermuda, or any other small island.
