  1. Seems like a situation where land interaction actually helps to push out dry air and tighten the circulation. It may or may not be over land long enough to impede strengthening
  2. HAFS, which seems to be performing well so far, brings Fiona through the middle of the Bahamas
  3. Overnight models seem to be converging on a recurve/surf-maker. Still, wouldn't rule anything out until it's made it through the islands.
  4. Yes but the members that keep it weak also are the ones threatening the coast. I honestly think at this point a slow death in the Caribbean is more likely than a recurve. But if it can survive past the islands who knows, as conditions are likely to improve
  5. The Euro is crawling. makes landfall in West Palm Beach in 9 days as a moderate TS
  6. In the upper levels the Euro seems to have taken a step towards the Canadian with the ridging shifting east and closing the escape route. Keeps it really weak though and seems to make a broad messy system that may have a hard time organizing
  7. GFS is further south. Also, curious how that feature over Florida will end up coming into play
  8. Yeah, his does make it clearer the tracks they end up taking. I just thought it was funny how even though the mean would be over the island, all the individual members appeared to miss in yours
  9. Quite a convective burst in the last hour or so. Impressive for nearing Dmin. Doesn't really look like it's occurring over or near the center, but I don't have that expertise
  10. With a track like that, a weak system is almost more likely to hold together over terrain than a hurricane.
  11. I believe it has been 5 full days since the NHC gave this a 70% chance of development through day 5. I feel like this has to be approaching longest lived cherry and it may never develope
  12. Yeah, would be wild if after this it ends up threading the needle and developing after staying weak through the Bahamas and ends up impacting the East Coast. Ensembles show the weaker solutions heading that direction
  13. If it becomes a hurricane, it would be one of the furthest north forming hurricanes on record. The only other one I could find in the NOAA database is Lisa (1998)
  14. Mighty impressive. Surely upwelling will hold back intensity for the next couple days though? Or does the subtropical structure negate this?
  15. Yeah, the GFS is broken. Wake me up when the Euro shows development within 84 hours.
  16. Camille is the one except that comes to mind. Pretty much held strength from the time it entered the gulf all the way to landfall
  17. I'd be curious to what degree the shut-off of the EPAC about two weeks ago has an downstream impact right about now. I know the two basins are inversely correlated (at least with respect to a typical la Nina), but not sure what kind of causation is there
  18. I can't help bet have a gut feeling that while we won't get big numbers this year, we'll get a Hugo/Isabel type track at some point
  19. Of course, as soon as it cools down we end up with cloudy/drizzly weather for a week straight. My elderly HVAC unit is loving it though (and I'm not complaining
