00z GFS got some additional data from this afternoons special upper air recon. It is initialized with a slightly stronger ridge over the top of the system. However, I still don't think that matters too much in the long run. Unless, the new data changes the evolution of the trough over the Gulf that gets left behind as the massive cutoff low lifts out.

Through 84h, bad news for Jamaica and you can start to see how some of the 12z Euro EPS members get into the Gulf.
However, the upper level trough still looks plenty strong to block the Gulf. It would have to cutoff and retrograde to the SW faster than models have been showing for this to get much farther west as it rounds the ridge.

Creeping the Bahamas at 120hrs. That little circle over Boston might be all that is keeping this from swinging back west towards S. Florida. Interesting run so far, bad news for Jamaica and the Bahamas. Combine the first 120hrs of this run with the 12z Euro that backs the upper level trough to the SW and there could be issues.

You do great work, but you do realize you are speaking Latin to cavemen most of the time right?

Matthew has rapidly strengthen to a category 2 100mph hurricane now

yeah I wish I had been watching recon... that was a pretty unexpected jump. The dropsonde also found a core of 120-130mph winds just above the surface so it will probably continue to intensify when that mixes down. Might be looking at a major hurricane by lunch tomorrow.

Thanks for the updates.

Could put on a show today but the overnight model data suggest the threat to the US has significantly decreased.

Couldn't tell by that satellite loop, but hopefully this is good news.

Yes, the two main models, the Euro and the GFS have it missing the US E. Coast by a good bit now, even more than yesterday. Nothing is certain until we see it actually turn but I've gotta say the models have been pretty darn good. I remember a week ago when this was just a 'pouch' in Africa the models had this coming all the way in the Caribbean and getting very strong and turning north at some point, generally what it has done so far, except for the north turn, yet. I have no reason to believe the storm will do anything other than what the model consensus is showing right now. That is make a hard right, slam either Haiti, Cuba or Jamaica, or all three to an extent, play havoc with the central/eastern Bahamas and then scoot out to sea on a quick North/North East track.

Upgraded to a major. This could be a really bad situation for the WCARB islands.

Basically from a somewhat sheared Tropical Storm to a Major in 24 hours. Wow.

What are your odds in saying that the GOM is safe for now?
Posted on 9/30/16 at 11:04 am to ForeverLSU02
The cold front that us coming through the southeast will push the storm north.... Odds are very very low it enters the gulf.

I hope you're right

what if it moves faster than expected and pushes it south and to the west
