Time to track the tropics

Maybe to you but others on Facebook, Twitter and other forums will continue.

I agree with you.

The EURO seasonal is showing classic La Niña/-IOD low frequency forcing over the eastern IO and Maritime Continent for OND:

65° / 60° cooled off a little bit more than I expected. Had to shut off the air conditioning during the night.

Looks like nothing to watch and track.

Big changes in the models last night today is important

Looks like the positioning is a little further south than modeled, looks like we watch and track.

Hard to believe with all the rain the last few months, that this is happening. https://www.abc27.com/news/multiple-dauphin-county-areas-announce-voluntary-water-restrictions/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook_abc27_News&fbclid=IwY2xjawMH2ptleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHm4UIfmxNklzCR8u_6jK8My845BbUBFxPKbq01SDok7xSpiDaTtq3Zsa0Y68_aem_GTqxn89hJvPMaAoFaAyD_w

0Z Euro: still recurves well offshore the Conus but at 73W, which is significantly further W than the 69-70W of the prior 2 full runs.

Based on the gfs and euro ensembles there is a 5% chance that there could be an impact on southern New England which means I believe this will be wide east but maybe Atlantic Canada can’t be ruled out

0z GEFS ensemble members are south of 18z through 186.

Yes, hoping tomorrow evening still has good viewing because moon will rise a bit later (it's 10:00 pm here, already cooled down nicely to 72 F, and a big old moon looking like God's ear above the horizon now in east-south-east). Except for moon we have very dark skies outside of town here, good for viewing auroral displays and meteor showers and night sky etc.

The 0Z GFS hits Bermuda hard with the center just missing to the NW. 0Z CMC passes ~250 miles W of Bermuda.

BANK ON IT. It will happen. Get the shovels ready. You'll all be GLUED to models for months. Your BACKS will hurt BAD. You are about to shovel about 50 years' worth of snow. Next winter will be even snowier. YOU ARE GONNABE SO DAMNED TIRED OF SNOW BY LATE JAN 2026, it will be ridiculous! You guys have had this coming for a long while. These, will be the Days To Remember. Joel says they will not last forever, but I got news for you! It WILL last "forever" for many. BIG ALTERATIONS COMING!

0Z 8/12 UKMET: similar to 12Z with it recurving at 66.5W and threatening Bermuda: TROPICAL STORM ERIN ANALYSED POSITION : 17.8N 31.2W ATCF IDENTIFIER : AL052025 LEAD CENTRAL MAXIMUM WIND VERIFYING TIME TIME POSITION PRESSURE (MB) SPEED (KNOTS) -------------- ---- -------- ------------- ------------- 0000UTC 12.08.2025 0 17.8N 31.2W 1010 29 1200UTC 12.08.2025 12 17.4N 35.3W 1008 31 0000UTC 13.08.2025 24 17.2N 39.3W 1008 30 1200UTC 13.08.2025 36 17.0N 42.6W 1007 29 0000UTC 14.08.2025 48 17.3N 45.3W 1008 29 1200UTC 14.08.2025 60 18.3N 49.0W 1008 29 0000UTC 15.08.2025 72 19.2N 52.1W 1008 28 1200UTC 15.08.2025 84 20.3N 55.5W 1008 33 0000UTC 16.08.2025 96 21.0N 58.8W 1007 34 1200UTC 16.08.2025 108 21.8N 61.0W 1004 43 0000UTC 17.08.2025 120 22.4N 63.8W 1002 43 1200UTC 17.08.2025 132 24.2N 65.6W 1000 45 0000UTC 18.08.2025 144 26.6N 66.5W 998 42 1200UTC 18.08.2025 156 28.6N 66.5W 995 43 0000UTC 19.08.2025 168 30.8N 65.6W 992 47

Looks like a high end tropical storm on the cusp of a hurricane

I agree. Especially when heat index are below 90°

Too bad so sad

0Z Icon is a fair bit SW of the 12Z. The 168 is not only well SW of the 12Z 180, but it’s also still moving NW by WNW and isn’t headed N into a trough like it was on 12Z.

Last year had the very cold hits but could not sustain. Things that happened as they did this season, cool and wet may into June and then hot and humid as hell itself with constant thunderstorms. Now zero thunderstorms. I found a lot of those winters that followed had lengthy but not spectacular cold This summer was like 2010 in my backyard. I remember 1966 with the persistent late afternoon thunderstorms . And others. Great reading everything y’all

Pretty well organized despite the marginal SSTs

Very good read!!
