I just thought of something. Is that dipshit still on facebook, fear mongering every model run?

I don't know about on Facebook, but that hack "Wetherman Plus" is still doing his song and dance on YouTube.

Erin will have a big effect on whatever comes of this. The more west Erin goes the slower she’ll be clearing out, which would cause a weakness and draw this wave with her. The more east Erin stays, the faster she clears out thus having minimal effect on this wave.

I say Ida came in as a 5. They weren’t able to make the last plane runs bc of mechanical issues


The fact that it did not weaken for a long time after landfill has me wondering. Those Chouest boats were showing some serious winds, but they weren't "calibrated" for official readings.

I do not believe for one moment the "brown water effect" was the case in Ida. It was moving slow, the last flight didn't happen, we had no good data, and it was not weakening for a while.

Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands are getting hit pretty good by Erin’s outer bands.

Then the 00z GFS is a lot weaker than the last few runs then exits through the Caribbean and out to the Atlantic

YouTube subscribers and Facebook clicks don’t come unless you scare the schite out of people. That is why they depend on making click bait material.

And the next run puts right back in the Gulf at the TX/LA line.

Is Tropical Tidbits a reliable forecasting site? I read about it here awhile back. I'm looking into the week of the 25th and I'm not saying anything.

Eta. From the dvs, this may be a poor question. Just asking for a friend.

It’s not a forecasting site at all. It simply is a place to view most of the major weather models that forecasters use, combined with their expertise, to formulate a forecast.

That’s why when model runs two weeks out are posted here, the poor bastard posting it gets torn to pieces - because it’s simply a model.

Thanks.

I read those.

So, it's not considered a "reliable forecast", just one of many modeling sites.

Two weeks ago. What is now Erin was being thrown into the Gulf anywhere from Houston, NOLA, and south Florida. Now it’s not even going to hit land. Can’t really put much stock into them until the runs become consistent from one run to another. Even then, can’t really be confident until multiple models show similar things consistently.

The guy running the site does some analysis and forecasting though. I think he does some of it on YouTube and Twitter. I vaguely recall he even responded to some comments from
a TD user.

He’s got real credentials though including a PhD and doesn’t doomcast on runs two weeks later.

Right, but that doesn’t make tidbits a “forecasting” site.
