The intensity of the models sometimes exaggerates on the higher end and the lower end fairly often. Especially storms this far out. Performance wise the computer models have been pretty awful this hurricane season.

If there's anywhere that computer models need to improve it's intensity forecasts. They're far more trustworthy on their forecasted paths.

So how screwed is my trip to gulf shores next week? Flying into Pensacola Wednesday evening. Flying back Sunday. When will I know that I should probably cancel it?


You are pretty screwed. There is always a tropical threat in the gulf around late August and Labor Day.

The tropical models (looking at you HWRF) do have a strong bias but the globals don't typically overdo it. If anything they will end up underdoing it. But we need a good center for any of that to matter much.

Just clarifying your point a little, not like a correction or anything.

Looks like we got three heading for the gulf?

The GFS-para has been spin up happy but that solution is certainly one possibility, with the 18z GFS no development being on the other extreme.

18z HWRF & HMON see a favorable environment for strengthening on the approach to S. Florida, if there is a system and it stays north of the big islands.

my guess is 97L hits Morgan City Monday evening as a Tropical Storm or level 1 hurricane.

98L first hits South Fla Monday afternoon at 2 and then gets back out into he Gulf for a 2nd landfall early Wednesday cat 3 between Destin and Apalachicola.

The TV folks really don't have much to say about these systems yet....
Yet.

The environment looks very favorable heading into the Bahamas but it'd need to be at least a decently organized TS to really take advantage.

What are you looking at to make this prediction? Not a smart arse question, the only thing I know how to find is NOAA and I’m trying to find more information.

listening to Mike on his weather page.

He's made some predictions.

He says people are going to wake up tomorrow and say "WTF"

It’s his gut feeling. Pay attention to what rds says and you’ll be fine.

I'm not sayin' he's wrong, but Mike's site is a good place to go for aggregated information from people that know what they're talking about. Mike's site should not be the place to go to hear what Mike thinks...

Of course it is but he uses some rationale to back it up.

He also puts more stock in some models over others and says EURO and GFS are asleep on these two storms.

And nothing wrong with rds input either.

Why not listen to both?

why not?

He's looking at the same models everyone else look at. He points out which models have been most accurate and which haven't.

Why not listen to him?
