RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Not looking good. Thats a relatively tight cone into the triangle with nothing to deter her strengthening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be amazed if this was locked Monday or Tuesday at this point. The pattern is just a total mess both over the US and WATL Yeah, almost no chance that wave break/RWT over the CONUS is being modeled correctly atm. There's a good reason there's a huge spread after D6/D7 right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean when thinking of the losses caused due to the event that I could not control I cannot help but feel guilty when it does come over. Today for example the remnants of Harvey swept through my area giving some rather pleasant wind gusts with some refreshing rainfall. I do sincerely apologize if I have angered you. Humans are wired to look for novelty.

csnavywx Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 54 minutes ago, bluewave said: Second summer in a row with the near to record breaking ridge W and SW of Spain. Seems to be part of a couplet producing the deep vortex and SST cold pool S and SE Of Greenland. Without this ridge inducing the WSW motion, Irma would recurve somewhere north of Hispaniola or Puerto Rico. The EA has been in record positive territory recently. Part of that is also likely a weakening of the SPG (sub-polar gyre). There's some evidence that's part of a long term change/trend. A good portion of the higher skill climate models continue to weaken the SPG in the future and a significant cluster of those suggest instability and local convection collapse -- which would definitely exacerbate that trend. There was a paper on this recently. I'll dig it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when you say a run is wrong without any backup evidence it kinda makes you look silly. FYI. He's technically right. It's an entirely different story to say that a storm wouldn't behave the way it did vs. a cat 5 making landfall at a high lattitude. Yes, one should never talk in absolutes. Perhaps "almost impossible" or "highly unlikely" would have been better words. But I think we all know what he was trying to say. It is likely that the pressures on the models are way overdone that far north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The run goes out to 360 but you have to pay for it. EPS D10-15 strongly favors an ots track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casualbrain Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 UKMET models have been remarkably consistent (least error and bias) with IRMA track and intensity compared to other global models. I'm going to be watching http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/storm-tracker/#?tab=map&stormId=11L&stormName=IRMA and comparing closely with ECMF and AVNO(GFS) until 3 days out. My bet is UKM will stay consistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Last nights Euro run would hit a lot of the same ares Matthew did last year. Obviously Matthews overall track was quite different. But if it verified it would be wild to see that recurve happen on the east coast just like Matthew did last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's some amazing agreement this far out, modeling has come a long way in the last 10-15 years. Even the globals are not that far off, the biggest difference is the speed of Irma which of course will be critical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavarreDon Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Looking at the floaters. It seems Irma is a little healthier and motion to the WSW seems to have started this morning.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the the other hand, my complete fascination by them after seeing what Hugo did as an 8 year old, I can't help but want to experience the power of one. But priorities change and doing crazy things like storm chasing or "riding out" a cat 4 go to the back burner when you have a family. When I was single I would've in a heartbeat! Not to worry. The urge and opportunity return when the kids are grown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the eps verifies...a strike north of the virginia capes is basically impossible since the war has been knocked back. The gefs of course offers keeps all east coast solutions in play.

csnavywx Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Irma is starting to cross over progressively warmer water now. It was near its maximum potential intensity last night, but MPIs have dropped from 960s to the 930s now, with shear at about 7kt, so we could see some strengthening today (depending on ERCs and some potential for dry air ingestion).

SN_Lover Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 GFS: Trough pivoting faster and Irma chugging along faster. If anything the Euro has been the one trending towards the GFS. Also, Irma has begun loosing latitude this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbenedet Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 12z GFS is likely doubling down on the trough and cutting it off even more aggressively this run based on how much deeper it is already at hr 84. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
