  1. Frankly I think we already have tropical storm Fiona. Considering how dry the mid-level environment is around TD 7 and the effects of westerly shear, there's a robust core with intense hot towers, as well as signs of nascant banding.
  2. The collapse of the convection to the left and dramatic blowup of convection tonight has made 96L look 10x better
  3. Convection is sporadic, but this is by far the best 850 mb vorticity 91L has displayed so far. This system is absolutely consolidating, and it looks to have quite the fetch. This could work against it in the long run if dry air becomes entrained, but this system has the potential to be a formidable hurricane.
  4. It's organization is dramatically improving as well, here's 6 hours ago vs now
  5. That's just an ugly trend for the hyped wave coming off of Africa. At least our lemon in the MDR is looking marginally more robust
  6. Oh look, the operational GFS trended even weaker with both waves and pushed the timeframe of the actual TC back. What a surprise... Feels like mid-July
  7. This is not an incredibly scientific analysis, but it seems that over the past several weeks waves have come off Africa and languished between 20-30W, with no sustained forward motion cutting through the SAL. The monsoon trough has been fairly active but it almost seems as if vorticities have strung out in an area of disturbed weather rather than punching through as an AOI.
  8. I'm definitely concerned that every time the development time frame for a system has pushed below 100 hours, the models have dropped it. Happened to the wave before the one at 25W, happening to the current wave, and may happen to the one behind it. Still very dry out there, and every wave coming off of Africa has been stripped of convection by 35-40W. If this doesn't change soon we could see a season bust of epic proportions.
  9. Looks like an active pattern ahead in the tropics
  10. I can't tell if the board is stuck in early season or late season blues, that this middling circulation is the most exciting thing we've been able to track in over a month.
  11. Given how bearish the board is I was suprised to see our AOI off of Africa looking pretty healthy
  12. Impressive convective pattern
  13. Heaviest snow of the day here in Arlington, been shoveling for an hour and there is easily 3 inches of snow on the stairs I shoveled first
  14. How many more hours of heavy snow are we in for in Boston?
  15. Even if the low is fairly displaced to the East, I'm really hoping we get at least some sort of capture, which would make this storm go from a monster SE snowstorm to a historic one
  16. How's our low pressure system down South looking?
  17. I'm curious to see if the strength of the low will be trimmed up as we head closer to go time, or if it will maintain the low 970's-960's that most of the models strengthen it to. How many sub-970 Nor'easters have we had up here?
