Anyone have the latest map showing the path?

The GFS is modeling the globe and the H- ?models are modeling the storm (typically using the GFS conditions for the shear/dry air/ect.).

Been a steady rain in Atlanta this afternoon, ground is going to be nice and soaked prior to Friday morning.
I smell flooding…

MachoMan, edit that post to say its a modeled future storm and not this one.

Maybe a dumb question, but why does the GFS have it way weaker than the HWRF, HMON, and the HAFS? 960mb (GFS) to 920mb on the others. Low cat 3 or damn near a cat 5.
The GFS is not run at the same resolution as some of the regional hurricane models. It can miss the minutiae.
The GFS has Helene at 979mb by 7pm and that pressure was already surpassed, so it’s coming in stronger so far than the GFS modeled.

well baws I'm riding it out offshore. Don't believe the news, we ain't evacuated.
That is wild, how close are you to the storm?

We're clearly in an organization phase. While it didnt go over land today, it was close enough delay organizing and contracting this big arse circulation.
This needs to close off an eyewall to really cook and the last VDM had us with a spiral band. Which, better than when recon got in there earlier with no notes about eye quality at all.
To get to the high end (4,5), it needs a symmetric eyewall to most efficiently flux that heat from the ocean.

We work for coonasses that get made bosses to be fall guys and they don't know any better, but they do know weather better than the weather man.

The storm continues to creep west, so closer every hour.

HAFS-A 18z run seemed to have a pretty good handle on where Helene is now (972mb at 7pm was the model prediction). It still got her down to 944mb and up to 140mph before landfall.
The simulated IR didn’t have a well defined eye until mid morning tomorrow on that run.
Yeah, the A does seem to be doing better short-term vs. the other 3 operational hurricane models. The other 3 get it down in the 920s.

Wow. To say “stay safe” sounds ridiculous but geeze I don’t envy you.

There are some deeper storms firing off right near the center now.
