If the NHC can’t predict the landfall within 100 miles 36 hours out then they need to go back to the drawing board

Beryl is exiting the Yucatan way further north than that cone suggests.

Well considering that was 18 years before I even existed no I did not.


The point is that 100 miles away can affect the Lake Chuck area.

There is a ridge (area of high pressure) over the SE US. It looks like that puts a bound on the potential eastward movement.


Is a trough weakening that ridge? Got a strong cool north wind right now in MS

My son, his wife and our grandchild (8 months old)are here (south Louisiana) heading back home to Houston Monday. Thinking they need to watch and decide what works for them.

Can I get a definition of a “wish caster” according to people on this board?

There’s absolutely NO ONE here that wishes storms makes it to ANYWHERE on the Gulf Coast.

What are we accusing of people to be when someone uses that term?

By Saturday night they should have a very narrowed location to landfall.

I will say my dad noticed something years ago. They seem to jog right when they hit land. Like the spinning inertia in a CC rotation creates friction with the land and it tracks to the right at landfall.

Something I always look out for.

Somewhat grateful he just passed so he won't have to deal with another evacuation ever again. He was run down and things like that just wore him out.

Going to miss having someone to talk to about this though. He loved watching the weather and giving reports. Made him feel useful. That and reporting on grocery add sales.

They used to be able to. Even with the technology of the 70s and 80s.

The problem is it took too weathermen going behind closed doors and hammering it out. Putting pen to paper and doing the work. Careers were made and busted based on those meetings. The cone had to be right.

Nowadays they just throw out whatever the latest and greatest model says and then move the cone when it turns out it was wrong. There is no more accountability.

They model pick for whatever they want the outcome to be
They hype up slim chances of something happening

Imagine the spike in ratings for local Mets when a storm is coming to their area - don’t think they aren’t above thinking about money

The Hurricane Expert on the Weather Channel used to be the Director of the Hurricane Center, and they use the European Model forecast, not the GFS. Joe Bastardi, one of the AccuWeather founders, has said the GFS is a flawed forecasting model. Maybe the reason why the NHC has dropped the ball on this one. They incorrectly forecasted that Cat 4 that hit Fort Myers .
