  1. Yeah the convection is looking weird for the past couple hours. Recon should be in the center in a matter of minutes which should shed some light.
  2. Posting from Boca Raton. The 5pm cone moved to where we are now barely on the edge of it. Wouldn't mind a nice squally day to watch on Tuesday following the long weekend but really don't want to lose power. It seems that being on the edge of the cone four days out means you're gonna get a direct hit, going by how things have been going lately.
  3. Yep, a Michael/Wilma track would do it.
  4. Can anyone explain what is going on in the 12z Euro? It looks like Elsa gets strung out between Cuba and the Bahamas but then regroups off the Keys and then continues into the Gulf.
  5. Right off the bat it's initialized at 1002 mb while the NHC has it at 995. The recon and surface observations weren't input to the 12z run so the 18z should be much more telling.
  6. Regardless of what happens here on out, another major bust for Euro's cyclogenesis forecasting.
  7. Yeah I'm looking forward to reading the 11pm update soon. Guessing they will up the current strength to 50-55 mph with the 45 knot windbarbs on the recent ascat and probably up the forecast to hurricane strength.
  8. Irma made landfall near Naples as a cat 3... If anyone is in for a rude awakening it's the east coast of Florida. Hasn't had a hurricane landfall since Katrina.
  9. Little speck of -80° cloud popping up...
  10. GFS with a cat 2 landfalling into northern Florida
  11. Models are in pretty good agreement that we'll have a tropical storm within 24 hours...
  12. GFS is locked, loaded, and ready to go on 97L
  13. This morning's HWRF develops 95L into a tiny cat 2 with the next wave hot on its heels...
  14. 00z Euro now backed off development altogether. Interesting how development COULD be within 24-48 hours and the models still can't figure it out.
  15. The windshield wiper effect is in full go mode with the 06z GFS back with a major hurricane into Texas. Regardless, we're at like 3 straight days of GFS runs showing this system forming so if doesn't that would be a huge flop.
  16. This run has a 980 mb storm making a left turn into New England lol
  17. GFS-Euro-CMC all showing signs of our first CV storm developing next weekend with the GFS being most bullish tracking it all the way to the Caribbean...
  18. Seriously. Last summer a severe thunderstorm, typical of a South Florida summer thunderstorm was packing winds of 65+ mph, it knocked over my basketball hoop in the driveway which fell on my car denting the car and cracked the backboard. That was the worst weather damage I've had to deal with living in south Florida for the past 4 years. I'll always remember that nameless storm.
  19. You can clearly see a tight lower level spin on the visible sat at 27.5N, 91.5W. I'd be surprised if NHC doesn't name it at 2pm.
  20. I don't know but the outflow of it provided a full day of much needed rain for us in south Florida.
  21. If we're having fun with the random 14 day out models, the 18z GEFS shows a signal for another western Caribbean storm possibly heading towards your area...
