the early euro runs that got this thread started said it would fire today.

sure the models have backed off a bit, but today is the day for it to happen.

Which model is typically most accurate under these conditions at this time of year?


Hard to say, all models struggle with storm formation (cyclogenesis). Once a storm forms it typically goes Euro and then everyone else.

I'm not seeing much. Surface obs do indicate there could be a broad circulation down there and there is some convection going off. It would probably take an extended period of vigorous convection to tighten anything up. Also, the mid level vort is displaced well away from any low level spin.

Where is the most reliable reflection of the Euro model? I can't find one that is consistent


Tropicaltidbits.com offers the best free Euro data. It is provided in 24 hr panels, so you miss a lot of what happens but it is still better than nothing.

yeah, there's a lot of convection today but there's no rotation in the tops whatsoever. It seems like the visible surface circulation is weakening too.

What may be happening is that surface circulation is reconsolidating below the convection, but the nonrotating convection kind of leaves me doubtful of that. I think we've gotta just be in a wait-and-see mode for today.

The imagery supports the NHC's forecast for dropping the 5 day probability for tropical storm development to less than 50%.

This system will be known for being the most watched, most analyzed thunderstorm in history.

I think we are at a pivotal moment for 99L. Looks like it is trying to get itself together this morning. If it can't get over the hump this time feels like it's obituary is gonna be written.

That looks scary.

I'm scared. Nobody's scared?

If we faced a situation like we saw with Katrina, Rita or Ike again there would be mass panic from Miami to Corpus.

Social media is out of control. Every storm plot freaks people out. Seeing these spaghetti plots does way more harm than good.

Let's pretend like the flood that just happened wasn't just a thunderstorm. Have an up vote.

And Obama is trying to secretly take over Texas, and physic spies from China try to steal your minds elation, and Elivs is Everywhere... maybe people should start thinking for themselves and stop believing everything they see on social media?

Yeah I've never watched an invest as close as I've watched this one. I've literally been watching it since it was at the Cape Verde islands off the coast of Africa.

I'm guessing this is because of how overdue the US is for a storm. We haven't seen a real threat in a while, so anytime the models bring a low into the gulf...people are going to take it very seriously.
