0z EURO scariest setup and strongest it has shown thus far...

hour120 Tropical Wave going through the islands entering the southern Caribbean

hour144 tropical depression forming offshore South America developing into tropical storm

hour192 deepening TS south-west Caribbean, north movement starts to avoid Central America

hour240 end of run....RI underway, down to 974mb before reaching the warmer waters, direct aim through the Yucatan channel assumed based on movement/steering, natural disaster likely given no escape path and atmospheric conditions

Don't think we will see any worse track solution than that. 953mb and that's not full resolution. Strong hit for Florida and inland for Georgia. Eye of the storm goes east of Atlanta, GA...but quickly tries to run the Apps of north-east GA/upstate SC....blasts through all of western NC....into West Virginia.

Heat Potential in Caribbean through the roof Untouched by major hurricanes past several years

(*not* a forecast) There is historical precedent for TCs entering Caribbean at low latitude & becoming major hurricanes during 9/20-10/10:

0z gfs not backing down, a doom run but a few changes

- now enough cold enough for snow upstate New York into Maine

- op catching up to previous ensemble tracks up/off the east coast for New England, after center passes around Charlotte, NC

- stronger in Gulf of Mexico, 952mb (not hi res, likely stronger Cat5)

- true panhandle of Florida hit now, aka more west, which aims the heaviest rains into the North Carolina mountains

- it gets cold post hurricane, not the usual warm humid sticky, 30s for the NC mountains

If this does end up happening, when is the time frame ? It does sound a little reminiscent of opal which hit the fl panhandle in Oct 95.

 

There are timing differences so in general not this week but next. Maybe around October 4th if it goes more climo and hits south Florida. (FIM model goes up the east coast ,sub 940mb in Maine even.) Around October 7th for inland S/E if it goes further west like the GFS into the eastern Gulf of Mexico.

I wish reality was half as exciting as what the models are showing. I don't want for anyone to die or get hurt, but it sure would be fun to watch a cat 3,4,or 5 hurricane in the gulf barreling towards the southeast. Not to mention it could completely end the drought here. Of course, if a cat 5 hit Fl and moved north into GA at a fast speed I imagine it would do tremendous damage even in North GA.
