these models are way too bullish on development of this thing to ignore.

I fear it is going to stay that way, too.

My question is... in a few months time when I leave CenLA for good to head back to SELA... do I keep following Nick Mik? I've come to respect his weather posts

Yes, the dude has been good for you. He's good at what he does, and those guys always need the support.

The GFS is absolutely bombing this thing out. I know it's still a long ways out, but it's only a few days out from when we should see it start.

GFS shows it getting very large also. Just to show how far the winds spread out.

It is worrisome because this one will possibly have the best environment out in front of it that we've seen this season.

For contrast, the CMC sends a sloppy arse mess into Mexico.

The Canucs said Florida and Mississippi should be getting ready to get whacked by Fiona in a couple days....

looks like it really depends on when then this decides it wants to strengthen. GFS has it <1000mb 2 days from now

And the GFS sends a 930mb, likely post tropical Fiona into Newfoundland. That's turned out to be a hell of an interesting storm to watch.

yeah that's a sick post tropical transition.

Latest GFS has a cat 4 into Tampa. Feel we are gonna get all the major cities hit before we get a true center formed with this one.

Followed by another potential major hurricane like 3-4 days later.

While I’m thinking of it I wanted to ask: when they issue a cone of death for landfall, which website was it that had the center path overlayed on something like google maps? Just for future reference.

Grand Turk getting hit hard, but they'll probably be back up and running in a few days as long as the power infrastructure is not too badly damaged.

yep.

Looks like GFS is developing it faster off the coast of South America (in 24 hours it will be a developed low), while Euro takes a tad bit longer for it to develop (which causes it to drift further west/south).

Next factor...if it does develop faster like the GFS predicts, is the timing and depth of that trough coming across the United States...looks like that thing is pulling the low towards Florida.

Predictable split along the Euro and GFS modeling, with immediate strengthening allowing 98L to gain latitude now compared to the Euro, which keeps is riding the SA Coast. Won't take but a couple of days to sort out which one is correct. This has big implications on which solution favors the FL Peninsula or the EGOM/CGOM.

GFS might be closer to correct if you look at the satellite imagery. It's definitely one of the best looking storms in the main development region this early in it's formation.

Almost didn't want to believe the GFS because of it's propensity to spin up stuff fast and hard down that way.
