Tropical Weather

[Mike80]

Now that it's a Hurricane, once it wraps the eye wall completely around the circulation (and it's close), you'll likely see a Hurricane that rapidly intensifies as it pulls away from PR and moves into the open Southwest Atlantic

Again just a model forecast, it isn't in the "official" forecast as yet....just one projection....BTW a storm of that size/shape would likely having winds of 135MPH+

what’s the European model saying?

what’s the European model saying?

It's putting the landfall further south....northern Delray Beach or so....

The HWRF is typically better for intensity however but even the Euro is showing a deeper cyclone than what the NHC is currently and that's NOT good since the Euro, being a global model, usually doesn't go as strong as the more focused models like the HWRF.

yikes

Just saw this (I don't have full access to the Euro) on Twitter, although it's not letting me access twitter at work (because yeah, whynot)....anyway it has a maximum velo of 128.1kts...and it appears that it will cross Florida and enter the gulf, right on top of the Loop current. That's high end CAT 4 (145-150MPH)....

it's looking increasingly likely that someone's gonna have a bad weekend....

Note to current and future Ohio State ADs: Don't schedule first week games in the state of Florida, ever.

thats damn near a right turn... PR catching a break

Fuck this 5pm update. I don't like this at all. Hopefully it goes back to a northern track or shifts farther south with that almost hard right it's taking in that animation. I don't want to be anywhere close to that eye wall after dealing with Irma and was quite fine with the northern track keeping the eastern side of the storm well away from me. Actually thought with the previous runs it was getting closer to trending to a relatively harmless track along the coast and back out to sea.

Here's what she said:

Just sayin': The European models may have better information than the UPS girls.

watch it miss puerto rico and head straight for mar-a-lago.

Nah it would likely be a cat 4, weaken and then reintensify
