Recon data indicates that Joaquin is bombing out this evening.

I did not see this hitting the East coast. Either I wasn't paying attention or models shifted quickly. I suppose they could still shift East but it would probably just mean a hit further up the coast because the pattern seems to strongly suggest an eventual WNW or NW turn.

They are saying this storm is unpredictable, so just keep an eye on this.

The hurr tracker app is good, it has iPad iPhone and online.

They seem to do a good job of keeping things up to date with out the doom and gloom of MSM.

There are a lot of factors in play and things look super tricky over the next couple of days. I'm sure there has been some heated internal discussion over at the NHC today. It looks like Joaquin will be stronger and farther south in the morning than any of the models indicated today at 12z. The 00z models will be initiated with a stronger system, will have the special soundings from 18z and the G-IV data. Hopefully, this will help narrow things down a bit.

You can look at the 12z models and see why a farther south and slower moving system could get kicked out to sea. Below is the 12z 200mb GFS at 72hrs with the approximate Euro position in red. The 500mb flow is similar and the GFS is close enough to Euro to use this one map.



There are a lot of other things going on, but based on the 12z modeling, it looks like the Euro might be more right in the short term than the GFS. However, there is a lot in play and who knows if a slower moving and more south storm still gets kicked out in later model runs.

There waiting for the Euros to come on board, can't have some redneck American model telling them what to do!

How big of a pain the arse has Joaquin been for the NHC up to this point?

Notice the 8 pm Wednesday position in the first advisory vs. this evenings advisory

I'm really enjoying your posts, thanks for sharing.

Looking at the satellite loops, I bet the morning news is a going to be about the panic on the east coast. Looks like it has the dry air blocked out to its north and east. Has plenty of fuel. Wouldn't want to be in the Bahamas right now. I'm thinking we have a Cat 5 by morning.

I'd head to Asheville for a couple of weeks and live at the HempHead commune.

Joaquin looks nasty today. Hope it weakens before landfall.

Good thing Baltimore has a professional crisis manager in Stephanie Blake.
