weathafella Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 6 hours ago, USCAPEWEATHERAF said: Hermine turns out won't be as intense as earlier thought, the idea of the warm gulf stream and lower wind shear stirred the appetite for a stronger hurricane eventually, but it hasn't taken advantage of the warm water due to the higher wind shear. James, the warm water is a myth. As a general rule, strengthening of tropical systems is dampened with sst under 26C. You'd have to go way south of our latitude to achieve event he minimal threshold. The water is warm for our standards but not good enough for hurricane strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalcottWx Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Run of GFS is weird to me. Seems to be strengthening visually now. GFS weakens it from this point onward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gusts decrease to 15-25mph across much of SE MA and central RI. Highest sustained winds are currently over Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard (25-35mph sustained with gusts close to 50mph). Power outages begin to occur when winds reach roughly 45mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Storm is much further northwest than originally thought, reason for the NHC to shift the track much further northwest of the benchmark. Gusts to 60-70mph on the Cape are looking more and more possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
