The fact that this "system" has hung around for so long makes me a bit nervous, especially when it gets into the Gulf. The fact that we're seeing more consensus now regarding strengthening as it heads into the Gulf is a little concerning.

depends on how strong that high pressure ridge is that miraculously drops straight down from north to south and blocks the storm

If it gets to 963mb as that model suggests, what category storm is that typically?
I don't know the category storm it would be but that converts to 28.44 inches of mercury barometric pressure.

I'm interested to see if the Euro ensembles actually go along with what the operational run shows.

Seems like it has been predicting that consistently. Has it even shown signs that's happening the past few days? Something tells me Euro is very wrong.

In the tropical Atlantic Basin 963 is usually a Cat 2 but can vary with size of the storm. Isaac was in the upper 960s if I recall correctly.

Lili was 963mb at landfall (table 1). Reports says it landed as a cat 1.

That can't be right??? Chart shows mb at landfall; top part says landed at cat 1

Getting into Cat 3 neighborhood, but likely a 2.

IIRC, Rita got sub 900 mb for a bit roaring across the gulf.

Yeah. 4th most intense storm, by pressure, in the Atlantic Basin. Rita was a REAL bad bitch for a while there. I've seen what she did to Cameron Parish after she weakened. I can't imagine what she'd have done if she'd hit at her peak.

I thank God it weakened. Screwed our area up BADLY. Would have hated to see worse.

Here's a local pic of little 99L in action in Guadeloupe:




They're reporting about 6 inches of rain and some mudslides so far with rain expected until Thursday(?). Local accounts and readings are about all we'll get today without a recon flight. As of right now, it's nothing worse than a strong tropical thunderstorm.

Looks like there may be some rotation in the NE side of the red convection. I could be just seeing things though.
