IIRC Michael was spun up in a similar way and they absolutely nailed that forecast from the get go.
Yep. I remember thinking "ah we're fine they never get it right the first forecast"....and then a Cat5 Michael went over our house just as they predicted.

What does transient convective feature mean??
Those thunderstorms probably won't last much longer.

This storm will probably hit Biloxi. These tracks early on have been off my a good bit.

Looking at the 18z GFS and Euro, there aren't huge differences once this gets in the Gulf. It appears that one of the primary things keeping the Euro in check is that development is slower over the next 48-60 hrs. This might be because the Euro isn't as quick to kill off 10-E, which allows for the outflow from 10-E to disrupt 97L.

Those anomaly models always make me wonder what they’re seeing. HMNI really has a bone to pick w Disney

Also, the rate at which it is moving eastward is an indication that it probably is a transient convective feature.

That one is headed to the OBX/Va. Beach

Looks to have a lot of undisturbed time to build over the next week.

00z GFS doubling down with a landfall near the big bend, southwest of Perry at 942mb

It drops the bottom out of the pressure as the storm shoots the gap/dances around Cuba and the Yucatan. It goes from 981mb to 956mb as it threads that needle. Not that it can't happen, but it would take perfect placement to drop 25mb in that area.

Yeah talk about bad luck but we’ve seen it happens before. 20 miles one way could make the difference of a cat 1 or a cat 4 unfortunately

The problem they had with Michael was the intensity. 5 days out they had it as a moderate Cat1 at most.

I don't know much about anything but that path looks really bad for Florida because it doesn't seem to have much slowing it down for development and it misses every land interaction possible.

what is this up by alaska?
GFS has a doomcane wiping alaska off the map.

The 00Z Hurricane models are going nuts.
HAFS-B has a 913 MB 139 knot hurricane obliterating Apalachicola.
HAFS-A has a Michael II scenario of 926 MB and 124 knots at Cape San Blas.
HMON has a nearly worst case for Tampa St. Pete with 909 MB and 124 knots near Hernando Beach with a massive surge into Tampa Bay.
HWRF is still running but looks similar.
Hopefully the models are overdoing things, but those are possibilities.

HWRF down to 938 right after it enters the Gulf

1. Northwestern Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico (AL97):
Showers and thunderstorms are beginning to show signs of
organization with a broad area of low pressure located over the
northwestern Caribbean Sea. Environmental conditions appear
favorable for further development of this system, and a tropical
depression or storm is likely to form over the next couple of days
as the system moves northward across the northwestern Caribbean Sea
and into the southeastern Gulf of Mexico where additional
development is possible.
Regardless of development, this system is expected to produce heavy
rains over portions of Central America during the next several days.
Interests in the northwestern Caribbean, the Yucatan Peninsula of
Mexico, and western Cuba should closely monitor the progress of this
system. Later this week, the system is forecast to move generally
northward across the eastern Gulf of Mexico, and interests along the
northern and northeastern Gulf Coast should also closely monitor
the progress of this system.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...90 percent.

They have arctic hurricanes up there all the time. That’s not even a bad one.

They’re making the GFS look conservative and they’re all looking at Thursday landfalls now.
The shite is going to absolutely hit the fan tomorrow. I don’t envy the disaster planning teams in FL right now.
