I just want everyone in SELA to know that it was my selfless action that steered this storm... Once I lay down the basketball goal there's a 0% chance that anything will develop to justify my actions.
You're all welcome.

But don't worry, I'm sure there'll be plenty more for people to complain about next week with potentially another Gulf system on tap.
Come again?

Pensacola question here - how do you think the weather will be around there on Thursday evening/Friday morning?
Probably a bit cloudy and cooler.

Mobile wasn’t in the cone 48 hours ago? WTF?
They were under a hurricane watch/warning though.
The cone has nothing to do with the confidence in a given track. It’s not dynamic for every storm. It’s the same size all year.

Which is dumb. They should be able to widen it based on uncertainty.

If I started a hurricane cone debate thread would y’all please move your shite there?

Wonder if the VRBO owner will still come let us stay the weekend.

So one out of three times, it will be outside the cone.
We're talking any cone at any point in time too.
Typically the misses are early on, when you have a developing storm or a situation like this with weak steering and subtle things really make a difference there. For Sally, it was both.
It was tough, it missed on Sunday but everything quickly corrected and Mobile got some lead time to prep. It was tough to get this exactly right, and the standard in 2020 has gotten pretty high because of how often the NHC gets the forecast very right days in advance.

I'd have to rewind a good ways to find it but the Atlantic is slap full of tropical storms.
Mary and Joseph couldn't get in right now.

If you have a question about the storm, ask it. People bitch about the side conversation, but everything is being answered in this thread.

Mobile solidly within cone? Timing just way off
With the five day cone starting near Beaumont, Texas and ending near Apalachicola, Florida it’s no mean feat to have the storm reach land in the cone.

The landfall cone was over 250 miles wide when the starting point off of Miami was only 650 miles away.
Not exactly pinpoint accuracy....
If you tell me the Gulf landfall cone was ultimately accurate when the system formed 500 miles east of the Lesser Antilles, then I'd be damn impressed!

Sally actually looks a little better organized this afternoon, at least on radar.

Y’all have been bitching about the cone for the last thirty pages. Who said what and calling them out. It doesn’t matter.
Posted on 9/15/20 at 3:26 pm to geauxtigers87
Yes, there is potential for another system with that disturb area in the southern Gulf got time to watch it just gonna meander for a while.

Reports coming in from mobile bay are not bad. Windy but the bay is not surging.
I’m thinking the next update will be an East shift toward a gulf shores /oba shore.

I agree. Always have felt that way. Very few folks are reading NHC discussions to understand how high or low the actual confidence is.
