  1. Theres arguments to be made for being subtropical. I dont think thats a totally unreasonable thing. Convection, symmetry and a moderate warm core depth.
  2. We were in Montreal and Quebec City the last week. Quebec City was mid while montreal was early...but it was a different story up in the Lauretians and Mt Tremblant. The mid-slope of the mountain up at about 1500 ft to 2000 ft was at peak...the top of the montain is mostly coniferous.
  3. You breathlessly posted about the canadian in the three separate threads in the middle of the night last night.
  4. 00z Ukmet has the a strong storm out about 100 NM west of Bermuda at t+144.
  5. Meh. Some of these tracks appear to be from a different disturbance, too.
  6. Yeah, I'd say the chances are "elevated" re: climatology, but still very unlikely overall.
  7. 6 days from Carol's development to landfall, more like 3-4 days for Bob. People will get warning either way. Track, intensity, and genesis forecasting are all way better than they were decades ago.
  8. UKMET is out at 33.5, -72.2 about 250 NM off the coast of NC at the end of its run (144) and has a strong, large hurricane. Looks to me it would make a slow escape northeast from there.
  9. We probably get an average of like 2 additional days of weather predictability now compared to when Gloria happened.
  10. NHC had a low bias in the 2-day and 5-day genesis probabilities last year. 70 percent forecast probabilities verified in development between 85 and 90 percent of the time and 80 percent 5-day probabilities verified in development 90 percent of the time.
  11. Definitely possible if it stays on the weak side and develops a bit later. Strong models UKMET/ECMWF) develop early from what i can see .
  12. Yeah, there's a decent signal for a MJO wave later this month into early October. Could get interesting with increased activity and midwest/east trough pattern with the north atlantic ridge.
  13. Thats a Les Suetes wind location. Not a proper gradient wind from the hurricane-force low but i guess it counts lol.
  14. Osbourne Head, near the entrance to Halifax Harbour is sustained at 62 mph, gusting to 88 mph.
  15. Cool. We had obs with Hurricane Chris on one of the rigs offshore NS that support hurricane force winds after the NHC had downgraded. I sent them an email about it, but they never responded nor added it to the tropical cyclone report. I assume it was part of ET transition through since it seemed to come on the backside as it pulled away from them.
  16. At least that area of winds that they reference is well offshore mainly s of the center. This the ASCAT image the prompted the upgrade. And like the NHC said, it appears that the area of high winds is associated with transition. It has the look of sting jet feature of satellite with an area of subsidence induce cloudless skies.
  17. https://weather.gc.ca/city/pages/ns-37_metric_e.html Gusts to 116 km/h / 72 mph here, Very exposed station.
  18. There is a Les Suetes in Inverness currently in ESE winds. But this isn't particularly remarkable for them, compared to winter setups.
  19. Widespread wreck. There isn't a great Wreckhouse or Les Suetes setup overall., there will only be a bit of enhancement above the gradient wind. You want more stable air under a warm front to promote the mountain wave breaking.
