Interesting...So, could you explain a little more about how exactly that affects the climate?

I just kinda poked my head in here and was perplexed to see talk about eruptions, lol So what's this about that eruption influencing climate??

Is that the reason it can't seem to come any further north?

So is the system coming out of the plains are sure thing? (Trying to figure out if Maria would have any way to track even further north)

So what exactly is kicking it OTS?

So this is an unrelated cluster of thunderstorms that's throwing in this unexpected variable? Lol

Is it okay to assume that even if it were to go further west, it can't make the turn any further north? (What's stopping it? I'm an amateur weather geek, so I'm not sure what I'm looking at, lol)

Yeah seriously...what's with the stair-stepping, snake-like path OTS? Lol

So...this amateur weather geek is ready to write this one off, so...Where's the next Invest?

Why does it seem like, no matter what, everytime there's even a remote shot of a tropical system, some model, somewhere in the forecast period, takes the system up the mouth of the bay? Lol I mean without fail, hahaha (has there ever even been a time where that actually happened??)

This may be one of those "wasn't meant to be" kind of scenarios...Disappointing for weather geeks, yet a relief for others. For us, it would be especislly disappointing if Maria gets totally juiced and have Cat 3 or 4 potential...only to get booted out by a system that brings a few sprinkles. Mercy...

Seems to be a closer miss than the previous run though, doesn't it? And how likely is this scenario? I'm hearing folks expressing doubt that Jose could stay there that long, but...

The GFS solution would be so anti-climactic. All of the Jose dancing and Maria intensifying just to have both do practically nothing, and Maria going OTS because Jose pulls her with it....say what? Lol When is the last time something like this happened in the Atlantic?

Asked this in the other thread: So this scenario would essentially eliminate the Maria threat? (And how likely is it?) Would be kind of funny if Jose has hung around for the purpose of steering Maria away, lol
