If this pulls a Wilma, which is of course aggressively saying something, would cause Sandy to have a mind of her own. Not trying to start hype about pumping a ridge or anything of that nature, but surprises would defiantly be in store. Then again, nobody is forecasting a Wilma from the Caribbean to the Atlantic with landfalls and shear in the way.

Anyone watching the FIM model? I believe it is the model taking over the GFS in the future. A lot of the models have the strongest wind field on the north-west side of Sandy, not the typical right quadrant. The wind field overall is noticeable large too.

Well, okay - what I meant was... Wilma serves as a bench mark for system in that area that fester, giving "maybe" to greater intensity.

Not really unusual considering that the high would be almost due north of the TC's center

The trough in the Plains is better this go around. Not as progressive and flat..and looks closer to EC ensemble IMO. Bur Sandy is pretty far east at this point.

Sandy is too far east IMO to get picked up... may graze SNE coastline... but is just too far east this run to be picked up. However, as you and others said above, the trough looks much better

Well FWIW the west does look a little better this time. The second s/w has a bit more amplification, but not sure if it will be enough.

Agree. it might be trying to catch on to the last-second shortwave that the GGEM was developing ..which rips south and east from the Pac into the Central US. You can start to see it on the GFS from 130-144 from the Plains to the Southeast.

If that feature is stronger it could surge southeast and capture the system, provided the TC isn't thousands of miles to the northeast by then.

eh yeah best vorcity about 50 miles east of 18z but agree it doesnt look as progressive out west.

It's longitude is an issue, but what noticed was the difference out west. Again...this owing the PAC energy creating some problems as we would expect.

I think it may even be a little more amped then the 12z euro. That disturbance zipping though SE KS @ 132 is exactly what is needed for a phase.Only problem is the storms alread too far east.

Edit: GFS deamplified after 132hrs.
