There is some high terrain in central Cuba that would impact that circulation significantly, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jojo762 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 The surge along the east/southeastern coast of Florida if this track were to occur would be absolutely catastrophic... don't even want to imagine $$$$ losses given how expensive that real estate down there is.

With the ridge overhead, what is preventing this run from shooting out into the GOM? The ULL thats diving down into the deep south Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackstraw Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 From a near term perspective it's getting pretty crowded with bullies around Irma atm. In the WV image/loops you can see the strengthening ridge to it's NNW moving the storm, almost stepping on it, to the SW but Irma wants to move more west with the TUTT to it's NW. It just looks like there's a bit of a tug of war going on there, but ridges usually win. There also seems to be some ridging to it's SW that is being enhanced by a fairly strong easterly flow out ahead of what could be Jose in the near future. That flow is almost out running the storm and it looks like the storm is getting pinched in the middle of all of these. It's pretty fascinating watching the loop. The storm truly is getting pushed around like a pinball. Once again in the latest model runs that TUTT to the NW is being delayed lifting out/dissipating. All of this is giving the storm a hard time especially at the upper levels currently I believe. I still think in the short term that TUTT to the NW is what's causing the west trend. That's what I'm watching to give me an idea of when/if this thing gets an opportunity to dance with the incoming trof. http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/east/tatl/flash-wv.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
