18z Euro barely moves Dorian from Hrs 48 - 90. It is hard to imagine that some small scale feature in the Northern Stream, that the models are not handling properly, doesn't spring the hatch allowing an escape out to sea.

Ramon. I don't know how to type an accent mark on the "o", but he has one.

Track seems to be shifting the right direction. Mar A Lago may be spared the worst of this storm if the trend keeps up.

Can you explain this post? Are you saying that you think there is a likely OTS path that models are missing?

Those storms over Missouri today have my attention. The 12z Euro initialized with the vort actually there over W Missouri vs not there on the 12z yesterday. Shows up on the 500 heights too. Would dig the trough in a little deeper (Euro shows it) right?

Heights fall a little more ahead of it for our steering ridge and we've got a good window.

Jesus man. With this sort of rapid intensification it could be a 5 at landfall.

At least it has a long way to go to reach cat 5 status.

Am I correct in thinking that you knowledgeable fellers are thinking it may stall out, sit in place and churn, and get caught up in being pushed northeast?

Good news, water in front of him for the next day or so isn't super warm. Not sure he can get too much stronger short term. (Didn't see the water temp earlier when I was suggesting Dorian would push Cat 5 on this intensification cycle)

Dorian will have a chance to get to a 5 Sunday (not great news for the Bahamas). The thing is, after that, he stalls or at least slows up substantially. Being close to the gulf stream should limit the upwelling effect but it would probably be enough to drop Dorian back down some.

I’m cool with that, as long as South Carolina doesn’t get fricked as a result.


Right now the projected path looks somewhat similar to the path Matthew took. I live in the Pee Dee and I don't think we could handle another year of major flooding and shite getting fricked up.

You think it will still be a CAT 4 by the time it gets to Orlando?


I don't have a clue.....but I know at less than a few hundred miles from Orlando it will be according to what we are being told now.....so id hate to guess in this situation.
