The models have been predicting a massive storm end of September / beginning of October for a few weeks now.

You would rather be in the cone 10 days out instead of 4 days out

Which is precisely why Louisiana needs to watch out for this.


Until the next run puts a cat 5 into New Orleans. Then Texas needs to watch out.


Until the following run throws a tropical storm into North Carolina. That’s when Miami better pucker up.

Which ones. Show me what models predict hurricanes over a month out

The cone is from Mexico to Cuba so the whole gulf is in it currently

Link? What models predict storms over a month out?!

There are models that predict atmospheric convection/lift that far out.

It’s not a guarantee that a storm will actually occur, but it does indicate that there’s a likelihood that the conditions will be right for development.

Here’s a picture of what it looks like, it’s been showing this at the end of the month for weeks:


Blue is lift and it tracks on the graph based on latitude meaning this is showing lift in the gulf for the end of the month.

So its wasn't predicting a huge storm like you claimed in your previous post

Also those aren't always accurate - that mjo model was predicting the conditions would be right from Aug 15th on and it was wrong and the storm is forming next week not at the end of the month and not even in the MDR

It’s predicting the conditions will be conducive for a huge storm to occur.

Whether it does or doesn’t occur depends on a myriad of other factors.

No it isn't - its predicting conditions for tropical development to occur

that model has nothing to do with intensity or size

It’s indicating the intensity of the predicted convection. The darker the blue the higher the convection.

Can we agree that there’s a direct correlation between convection and potential storm intensity?

I agree that I should’ve changed my wording. It’s not directly predicting a strong storm, but rather that one of the strongest indicators for storm development and intensification is present. Taken in conjunction with historically high water temps in the gulf it’s something to be concerned about.
