  1. Y’all ready for another super duper ACE producer?
  2. We have to think about more than the coast. Iowans with no connection to the ocean got derechoed and they must not be forgotten.
  3. You’re right. All we have to talk about is models. I just think it’s funny, that’s all.
  4. Individual storm threads: damn the models suck, they have been performing awfully, especially in the mid and long range main tropical thread: look at these models!
  5. Hey when is the pink ring thingie gonna make it RI? It’s almost bedtime here but I can stay up if need be.
  6. 6 miles to 32...that means it must have GONE THROUGH AN ERC ALREADY ZOMG
  7. Try explaining the importance of reliable SFMR to a normal person, let alone a republican. Lol.
  8. That caymans radar definitely helps paint the shear picture however. Weak northern convection coupled with a lopsided eyewall. It won’t rapidly intensify unless that stuff gets worked out, regardless of a wisp of a cyan ring.
  9. I’ll keep hating. That’s a pretty basic bitch cyan ring. Plus like guru Phil said cayman radar is showing convective anemia.
  10. You’re trying to argue with a bunch of people who know climo but don’t give a shit. We have put in the labor over the years and are entitled to bitch.
  11. That’s what’s cool. Ignorance is bliss. Maybe we should only name hurricanes or do what other agencies do and split tropical storms into two groups starting at 48kts, only naming the more severe ones.
  12. Much more unusual genesis, nuclear wind gusts too. Spatial coverage exceeds Iowa too. Plus I am deducting some points for performance enhancements like corn dewpoints and more widespread coverage of trees to damage.
  13. It’s wasnt even the most interesting derecho of the year. That’s my true hot take for this thread.
  14. It’s not a bust yet. It’s just also not good or worth going to the mat for simply because we have found 15 closed circulations and some of them did things.
  15. Nothing I guess. But until some of those happen I won’t defend this season as being “good”.
  16. No, he just appreciates quality because he is Canadian and doesn’t have to swear fealty to the bud light 30 pack of hurricane seasons.
  17. I am pretty consistent. I remember getting bashed because I thought Dennis was underwhelming.
  18. I’m not saying you’re wrong objectively. The season is very active. I am more commenting on the subjective experience that people tracking the tropics feel. I was getting good tingles preseason. If you had told me we’d be to Omar on 9/1 back in the Spring I’d have felt even more excited...but this season is smoking the boof so far. I want better satellite porn, recon that doesn’t turn around and can actually transmit data, daytime landfalls, a solid sub 930 Caribbean cruiser, some MDR threats to Bermuda, and one or two storms threatening Atlantic Canada and the northeast. Some of those will come but I also suspect we are cursed a little. we can revisit after the secondary peak in October. I just hope you aren’t like “it’s 29/8/2...second best season ever”
