Peej, if you care anything about me, please stop taking their bait.

You know I live in FL and I desperately need to read what the experts say to see if I can wear my suede d'orsay flats this weekend!!!!

The fact that it was 10 years ago and you looked old and leathery then doesn't speak too well about you a decade later

I can't imagine what that guy looks like aged 10 more years. Yeeeesh

Forget Fred. Let’s discuss what the latest GFS does with 95L


940? Yikes. First one worthy of a name.

That one could be Hurricane Baw.

Each model has a number of ensembles. Each individual ensemble run has slightly different variables or potential outcomes due to tweaks to certain parameters. The main model will take, essentially, the average and most likely scenario from these ensemble model runs.


I believe it’s a little different explanation than this - the operational/main run has all of the current data points plugged in as reported. The ensembles intentionally change the initial settings in order to account for the fact the initial inputs aren’t perfect, so the ensembles help provide some level of possible alternatives.

The main run isn’t an average as much as it’s just the initial settings without any intentional adjustments. You often see the main run in the middle of the ensembles, but it’s not an average as much as it’s a baseline of sorts.

gotcha - I was thinking the early runs were pick the one in the middle as a baseline, and adjust accordingly as new data is fed in - seems it would be easier that way - but wholly inaccurate - but for forecasting 5 to 7 das out for the US, it makes sense to do it that way - since there is no real way to know, at that point, what anything will do.

I would imagine storms hitting that part of the country are pretty rare. When was the last one to do it?

After Jacksonville, it is going to visit the Carolinas.

I am not a weather professional, but am following the standard arc in the NOAA drawing.

Not just initial settings, but also assumed values and different assumptions. So it's a bit more of a spread than that.

Yeah though, they're trying to give a spread of possibilities vs the exact outcome.
