So are we looking at potential for two hurricanes in the Gulf next week?

So the NHC has it around Galveston Tues/Wed time frame. With the water temps in the gulf, wouldn't it inevitably strengthen? Or is there a potential front or dry air that time frame that keeps it from strengthening? TD #14 I am speaking on

Looking at the models though, I’m assuming it’ll be a depression/TS event.

Lots of rain


With NHC discussion saying shear could increase in day 4/5 in the area of 14... could 14 become a storm in which most of the rain/issues are well to the east?

If so, that could mean a center headed into the central TX coast could actually be a lot worse for South and SE Louisiana.

The official NHC forecasts, not just some of the models, now have a strong Cat 1 west of Tampa and a strong TS south of TX/LA in 5 days.

At the same time on Tuesday morning the official forecast points are only 567 nautical miles (653 miles) apart.

TD14 is actually a little concerning on the projected path because it's going into boiling hot conditions and smaller systems like that if they get their act together can ramp up into RI. Not saying that's happening here...but I wouldn't underestimate it right now either.

Yesterday the experts had 98L at 90% chance of becoming a depression although the two top models had nothing. 21 hours ago
yesterday the experts had 97L at 60% chance of becoming a Depression. Neither of the top models had anything.

The two top models have been getting killed.

NHC now putting a hurricane in the eastern Gulf early next week

I'm leaning towards this, with potential to be stronger than what it is currently looking like.

Has there ever had two storms in the gulf at the same time?

Like I said, 2020 is the year of giving.

Levi talked about the window for TD14 developing is opening right now but will shut sometime over the weekend

shear is supposed to come into the area as a trough digs in

don't know if that's changed since last night... but that's what he had been talking about

Every person and entity is struggling to square the global models with the intensity models right now. They are exact opposites with both systems.

Water temp is just one ingredient although Al Gore would lead you to believe it’s all that matters.
Conditions are very tricky as there is a big upper level though over the GOM. The interaction between the Depression and that tough and with the land will determine the intensity. It’S August and thd water is plenty hot.

In regards to TD 14, even a landfall just west of the LA/TX border puts Louisiana on the east side, where the heavier rain will be. Maybe it'll move fast enough not to cause a lot of flooding issues.

Not that I am superstitious but I made a big joke costume about "corona beer virus" last February for Mardi Gras before the shat hit the fan....so I ain't saying nothing about the potential storm in the Gulf.

That trough doesn't appear like it will be hanging around long, though.

While we wait for the 12z runs a quick look at the 06z ensembles. The GEFSv12 & Euro EPS have about 25 members that track TD14 in to the Gulf. Combined there are over 80 members between the GEFSv12 & EPS.

This is a few hours old. Look for some of the heavy amounts forecast to increase and spread inland in the next few days as the forecast is refined.

No but initially it could shear the system and keep it from strengthening. .
