Those are crazy! When I was researching mine, I looked at those monsters just to see them in person. There are some bad arse generators in that space. I went with the 30kw Kohler because it's liquid cooled and it wasn't that much more than their 26kw which is air cooled. I hope I made the right decision, this shite is expensive.

Worsened trend on tonights model runs....GFS and Canadian

Be interesting to see what the Euro does tonight

Still way early, but this season seems like it's gonna be shite. If Beryl was a prequel, I don't want to see the main event for the Gulf Coast.

I’m looking for some insight on what the Euro and GFS are showing. I know it’s early but we are leaving on a Carnival Cruise on Sunday. It’s a 7 day cruise. So we leave the 28th and return the 4th. Does anyone know what the ships will do? How that works. We go to Belize Honduras and Cozumel. So I wasn’t sure the timing and looks of this for the Caribbean. Any advice or what we should prepare for would be appreciated. This is our very first cruise.

As am I. But my parents, most siblings, and the vast majority of my extended family are still there.

Our 15 minute, summertime, torrential downpours have been significant this year. If we get a storm that lingers, flooding will be a mess.

Exactly this. Still nerve wracking every season for me even if I’m no longer in the direct path

Always take a computer model with a grain of salt. My rule on models is the rule of 10. For each day out subtract 10% accuracy.
1 day out= 90% accuracy
2 days out = 80% accuracy
3 days out = 70% accuracy
…
8 days out = 20% accuracy
9 days out = 10% accuracy
10 days out = 0% accuracy

I would agree, but start you figured at day 4.
Most of the time for 1-3 days, they have it pretty well figured out.
But yeah, for one this far out, it’s like shaking an 8 ball and hoping for a good guess.

I'd prefer this magic 8 ball not be right. 186 hours is next saturday, coming up quick

This comment s similar to the SR71 blackbird air speed video. Delta is the top dog.
Everyone else talking about their 5500, or 30kw, then here comes the man with a 150kw.

Im still thinking we need a sacrificial wave or two to clean up some of that lingering dryness.
NHC has two waves marked on the TSA, and it does look like models either merge the two or favor the 2nd wave for development. This wave has a very healthy H7 vort (usually a better indication of future development than the 850 vort). You can see the 2nd H7 over take he first one in a few days.
That merger process will open the door for dry air infiltration. After that, add in above avg SSTs, forecasted low shear, and improving background state, and the only thing to hold this back would be land interaction.
However, the 00z Euro drops in a summer cool front that would easily sweep this potential system up.
Things to watch in the coming days: Does the merger process allow dry air into the core of the developing system, how much land interaction occurs in the islands, does the Euro cool front actually come true? My biggest concern would be the wave staying weak longer via dry air or land interaction and getting into the Gulf.

12z GFS comes back around to reality. It has the Leewards taking it apart and develops nothing from it afterward.
GFS maybe seeing a front, too, with the steady eastward swing of the system in recent runs. Either way......she gone for now.

Models show a potentially complicated genesis pathway, with the potential for dry air and land interaction to keep this one off the board.

Well this guy nailed it
At least as far as gfs. We don't have to talk about Canadian

You can't trust the Canucks. Never, ever trust the Canucks.
I don't know about the weather model. Just don't trust the Canadians.
