18z GFS. Cat 1/2 here. Not going to be a popular run on here. GFS painting the western solution and the Euro pointing east.

I'm supposed to be on Panama City Beach this weekend. I like that GFS run

I think this is going to require evacuations.

You realize a SE LA storm would still have feeder bands crushing the panhandle right?

Pretty tight window on the computer models this far out. Anywhere from mouth to the Mississippi to Panama City in Florida.
Lot of disagreement on strength. So far strongest is the euro which has it roughly a possible cat 1. The rest are TD to weak TS

Will this affect Florida this weekend or next weekend.

Notice this starts an East movement (NNE or NE) on the last frame of the GFS. This is completely about timing. I still feel confident this will end up hooking East early enough that it hits Florida. The layout of the Gulf works such that a turn East just a half day earlier makes a huge difference in landfall.
I will get worried if the Euro shows this same scenario but I bet the GFS gives in soon enough.

Know what you mean. I'm supposed to leave Thursday afternoon on a trashy cruise out of Nola. Doesn't look good.

You keep saying this as if it is fact but you are wrong. 980 on the GFS is borderline Cat 2. Euro showing Cat 2 as well.

Maybe so. I was thinking Maria when she dropped down to around 980 was a TS by then. Honestly it can vary

Yes, it can vary based on different factors but for the most part you assume 980 mb on a model runs is around a Cat 2. However, the models are horrible at intensity projections. That's why I stand by my commend that this would be weak as it approached the coast. The front coming down that will hook this east will cause it to ingest tons of dry air as it nears the coast and models rarely do well at taking that into account, I find. They will eventually see it but not for a while.

All about that pressure gradient. A tight 980 can bring Cat 1/2. A broad one a TS. Maria had a broad field of wind but at a cost of a lower top windspeed.
Think Katrina as a Cat 3 with a central pressure in the 920s vs Harvey rocking a pressure in the 940 range as a Cat 4.
