re: Storm Aftermath - Hurricane Matthew will be Retired

There is obviously something different about this one. Usually nobody even mentions a storm out this far other than maybe a sentence or two on a blog just saying it's something to watch for later.
With this thing 2 weeks out I'm almost certain a front will play a factor here
I'm really hoping we can get a cool front for opening weekend of deer season

I don't recall ever seeing a system maintain a straight line that passes just north of S. America or gets that close to middle/lower C. America. Does this only happen late in the season?
I don't think Aruba has been hit by a Hurricane in recorded history.

That's what they told us in 2005, Katrinas and Ritas would happen every year.

That's not a good look at D10 on the 12z Euro
Posted on 9/24/16 at 3:50 pm to rds dc
Ok but based on that why would it turn and come north?
Posted on 9/24/16 at 3:52 pm to FelicianaTigerfan
It would curve north because of the curvature of the earth.

Well, we don't know how it ends on the Euro run because the Euro does not go beyond that. However, looking at the map I see a trough coming through the Midwest. That can create the opening for it to start heading poleward. Timing is everything. If that trough gets clear off the East coast quickly then it opens up for this to head N then NE and probably into Florida. If it is a slow move or doesn't dig very far south then it may be a more gradual NW to N turn which is worrisome for us in Louisiana.

Thanks. Hard for someone that knows so little about it as I do to understand troughs and ridges. Some push it some pull it I guess

Its pretty crazy how much everything is in agreement for being so far out time-wise. That's the thing that worries me.
Glad that I am no longer living in the caribbean.

An interesting historical fact is that since 1851 a hurricane has not made landfall in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, or Texas between October 5 and October 11. Here are the landfalls by date:
Sep. 27 - 1901
Sep. 28 - None
Sep. 29 - 1915, 1917, 1998
Sep. 30 - None
Oct. 1 - None
Oct. 2 - 1860, 1867, 1893
Oct. 3 - 1964, 2002
Oct. 4 - 1867, 1949, 1995
Oct. 5 - Oct. 11 - None
Oct. 12 - 1886
Oct. 13 - None
Oct. 14 - None
Oct. 15 - None
Oct. 16 - 1912, 1923, 1989
That's about 1 every 14 years between Oct. 2 and Oct. 16. And the last one was Lili in 2002 - 14 years ago. Based on climatology, the potential is there.
This potential system would most likely be between Oct. 7 and Oct. 9.

Another dud of a season.. everyone it was fun with no major damage or storms to worry about.

Keep it up. I follow the underground blog, but it is nice to have another outlet.

That is basically it. Also, it is modeled to be so far south that a weaker trough might miss it allowing it to move into Central America. This time of year is always tough for the models to handle but the timing of troughs gets to be easier to pin down as we move towards October but the strength can still be tricky. The 12z Euro EPS is pretty much totally on board as well:
The EPS and control run go out to 15 days. The control is into Mexico and the EPS members are pretty evenly split with about 1/3 curving out east of Florida, 1/3 somewhere in the Gulf and 1/3 into Central America.
The trough is also pretty pronounced on the 12z Euro EPS:

The storm surge with that strength and slow forward speed would be incredible.
60 hours to travel from Cuba to the FL panhandle. That's less than 10 mph.

Well...that's a pretty tight consensus
