 This NY Post headline is so misleading. If the Fujiwhara Effect is strong enough, that would actually be the best way for the SE to avoid a landfall. Thus, I hope Fujiwhara is strong. The stronger combined storm on those models/ensemble members doing that avoids the US in the vast majority of cases.
 
The NY Post is not a good source for news, regardless. It borders on tabloid.

consider the source, unfortunately people will believe it as truth.

Borders? It is tabloid. They thrive on page Six stuff.

 Headline is so irresponsible and hype casting.  Why even post that here?

94L isn't going to do anything until whatever circulation that is there, clears Hispaniola.

Local western NC talk here: a lot to track and a lot to determine, but if the circulation meanders into SC, it’s another terrible scenario for an area still reeling from Helene. Easterly, upslope flow and a steady fetch of moisture from the Atlantic…not good. We’ve luckily had very dry antecedent conditions but that can change rapidly with plenty of convective activity expected ahead of the circulation.

 The best bet for the SE to avoid a hit and the potential flooding catastrophe would be if 94L were to move away from there more slowly than the model consensus and let Humberto get to a higher latitude than it. Also, the same would probably be the case if Humberto were to move more quickly. Then hopefully Humberto would pull 94L away.

The other would be a Fujiwara effect to pull an Imelda away from the coast.

That’s what I meant when I mentioned those scenarios. It appears the best chance for a Fujiwara to do that is for Humberto to be at a higher latitude than 94L. This is based on viewing 100s of ensemble members from different runs along with operationals.

Per WxBell (may be different from others like TT): 

-Of the 18Z 30 GEFS/50 EPS members, I count ~25% that bring a lowest SLP of <1000 mb onto the E coast, but I see no lowest SLP <990 mb on the GEFS on land.

-There do appear to be 7 EPS members that are hurricanes/<990 mb hitting.
