So my parents place is in Palmetto. Just over the bridge from Bradenton. Bradenton had a recorded gust of 100mph. Looking at current radar their place looks to be in some of the worst winds. Their place is a manufactured home. I have a not good feeling about it. :(

Hope everything works out for them.

This tornado outbreak in southern Florida is insane right now. 10 active conformed tornadoes on the ground as I am typing this. 

over 100 tornado warnings in the span of a few hours. crazy.

So update. My parents hear from the manager of their neighborhood this morning. Their home is fine. Only lost two trees out front. Could have been way worse. The whole area is without power and so not have a timeframe for when it will be back.

My peak season forecast is running out of time (Aug 20–Oct 20) and in the coming 10 days I think I have 2-3 more chances (two long shots) to get names on the board.

1. Western Caribbean, where the models led by the GFS have a signal for another system to potentially come out of a CAG or other vorticity seedling. This is the best chance for something else to pop imo before the lid goes back on the basin—probably until November. 

2. Eastern Atlantic, where the NHC has a lemon but I don’t think TCG odds are good at all.

3. Eastern seaboard, where there’s a modest signal for some type of non-tropical low associated with a trough that could become subtropical. This has not worked at all this season, so I doubt it happens here.

You should have chased the ENFORSEEN tornado outbreak in Florida. A ton of sarcasm here.

Took a long time, but that western Caribbean area produced. Big win for the GFS.

The other invest that started in the eastern Atlantic is looking good too. Might get another short lived one before the forecast period ends. Interesting that my NS/H/MH proportions are spot on.

2/3 of my highlighted areas on Oct 10 ain’t too shabby. NHC completely whiffed on Oscar. Damn near has an eyewall this morning.

Oscar in the brink of becoming a hurricane 

Looks like Oscar heading west southwest and being pushed that way from a ocean low moving south well off the East Coast.  If I extrapolate the track west-southwest looks like he is heading for the northeastern coastline of Cuba get ready there for a surprise albeit a quick one being how tiny this storm is. 

It will be interesting to see what the intensity will be with such a small circulation could ramp up quick but looks like a lot of dry air and a front pushing down from the north and a lot of northeasterly shear which is going to really force and possibly shred the system southwestward.  It is perfectly tucked between for now that's interesting.

Probably is. What a miss by the models - so small they just can’t see it well?

It’s a pretty incredible miss all around imo. This looked like at TC last night imo. Satellite derived winds may have had trouble seeing the small circulation.

Unless there’s another surprise this will be my final result.

It is almost guaranteed to be wrong of course. Though wacky things can happen this time of year I suppose. 

Absolutely. As long as it is within the range of outcomes, I would be nervous if I lived there.

Euro AIFS seems to hint at development down in the Caribbean as well but shunts it out to sea. We'll have to see how any deep digging trough out in that day 13-16 range transpires. If there really IS a strong system coming north out of the Caribbean and a "capture-worthy" trough...they might be in trouble. Long way away, of course. Wake me in 5 or 6 days if it's still showing
