I'm humbled, but I can't help but think that a high-end MDT would have worked fine for today..... In other news, this may have been covered elsewhere, but the NCEP "critical weather day" means that GFSv16 can't be implemented today (or tomorrow with the MDT).

As in if William was the 20th name on the list that is Expand Well if I read the article I would know lol -- https://public.wmo.int/en/media/press-release/wmo-hurricane-committee-retires-tropical-cyclone-names-and-ends-use-of-greek Quote Greek Alphabet The annual name list has been exhausted on two occasions during the past 15 years, and it is likely that this will occur again in the future. Hurricane Committee members agreed to create a supplemental list of names A-Z (excluding Q, U, as well as X, Y, and Z on the Atlantic list) that would be used in lieu of the Greek alphabet when the standard list is exhausted in a given season. Names on this list could be retired and replaced, when required. Names beginning with Q, U, X, Y and Z are still not common enough or easily understood in local languages to be slotted into the rotating lists. The 2020 season showed that there were a number of shortcomings with the use of the Greek alphabet. There can be too much focus on the use of Greek alphabet names and not the actual impacts from the storm. This can greatly detract from the needed impact and safety messaging. There is confusion with some Greek alphabet names when they are translated into other languages used within the Region. The pronunciation of several of the Greek letters (Zeta, Eta, Theta) are similar and occur in succession. In 2020, this resulted in storms with very similar sounding names occurring simultaneously, which led to messaging challenges rather than streamlined and clear communication. Impacts from Eta and Iota were severe enough that those names have formally retired by the Hurricane Committee. There was no formal plan for retiring Greek names, and the future use of these names would be inappropriate. A supplemental list of Atlantic tropical cyclone names in lieu of using the Greek Alphabet was agreed by the committee. Expand Still seems a bit weird though to go from Hurricane William and then back to let's say Alice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
