I think Nantucket may be just the ticket.

Complacency is a killer.

Camille, Katrina (in New Orleans), Andrew. You stay in a target zone and God help you.

Thursday at 7PM



It's almost refreshing being targeted 9 days out. The chances of it being that accurate are very slim.

My fiance and I were in Baton Rouge that night and I remember reading that Katrina dire warning and thinking to myself "Oh frick". I was in NOLA the night before and those of us who were from around here were unassing the city posthaste. We talked to some tourist in the atrium lobby of a hotel on Canal and told him to GTFO of the city. He told us that he'd never been through a hurricane and was going to stay. When told what would happen if the levees broke, he said he could tread water.

I sometimes wonder whatever happened to that fool.

12z Euro EPS tracks



12z GEFS has a D10 cluster, even though the OP doesn't develop this for a number of reasons

I'm trying to read those maps. Are the green circle tropical storms, light blue cat 1, and dark blue cat 2? Also what is a D10 cluster?

So, yea the free version isn't best design, lines are the tracks and circles indicate the position at certain time steps. D10 = Day 10.

LINK

I pulled that link from thehulltruth.com.

You can click on each day on the bottom. Not sure how accurate but its similar to your stuff.

I just looked at it again. Its similar because its the same model forecast.

Which model was it that locked in on the eventual Harvey solution a week in advance?

Yep, about 5 days until Climo says, "Go Time"


We will see. Is this the quietest season on record or what?

Euro was good on the Harvey landfall area, but nothing had it stall for as long as it did a week plus out. Nothing I can recall at least.

ETA - some of the variations in forecast 9-5 days out had some pretty impressive hits. The GFS nailed some rainfall totals 9 days out, for example.
