  1. I don't know something seems fishy to me about these model runs. Looking at how it looks on satellite right now, are we really supposed to believe it will look like this on Monday morning?
  2. Best looking invest I've seen in a while. This thing could already be a tropical cyclone.
  3. Yep, modeling totally blew the initial intensity forecast...
  4. Ian had the biggest lead up since Irma. Go check out the Ian thread again... we were discussing a major hurricane in the Gulf while it was still an invest over a week before landfall.
  5. The convection is quite impressive and much further east than models had been showing. Watching these trends closely here in south Florida.
  6. Recon and visual satellite both showing the center is a full 2 degrees west of where NHC has it...
  7. Interesting little shift west on the 18z EPS...
  8. 90L is looking nice this morning. Will be interesting to see how far west it tracks. I feel like models don't have a good handle on it.
  9. Quite a few of the GFS runs have been showing a CAG like storm forming in the western Caribbean. CMC has been showing it a lot too and now EPS is hinting it at. Where it goes from there is a toss up but the fact that it forms on many models is what's important.
  10. Anyone know if recon will be flying into it?
  11. 12z GFS, CMC, and Euro are basically telling us we have no idea what's gonna happen. Jeez can we get some model consistency here please?
  12. 18z EPS still showing four distinct clusters within 144 hours
  13. Nice post as right after that the 12z EPS blew up. We'll see if it sticks https://twitter.com/HurricaneManWx/status/1687931125040070656
  14. Structure looks nice but all models have it go poof as soon as it enters the Caribbean. If the NHC is right and it maintains at a 75-80 mph hurricane through the Caribbean, they would get mad respect.
  15. This system in the western Caribbean is what the GFS has been saying hits Florida as a hurricane for the last 2 weeks. It certainly looks impressive right now. It'll be interesting to watch in real time.
  16. That's quite a look for June 11. This is gonna be an interesting season...
  17. 1) Sandy made landfall at 945 mb 2) Sandy was 1,100 miles wide 3) Sandy pushed the surge into New York Bay which is one of the largest bays in the world and naturally incredibly surge prone. There is nothing like that around where Nicole is going. To sum it up, this is nothing like Sandy.
  18. Looks like it's trying to pop some convection on the western eyewall. Needs it to stick if it's gonna intensify some more.
  19. Wow that recon pass really just ramped things up quick. On the verge of being a hurricane now.
  20. Anyone know when the next low level recon is?
  21. Someone tell me if I'm crazy but I'm seeing the LLC now moving just EAST of due south...
  22. The last few frames of satellite looks like the center is moving due south and convection is trying to pop right there.
  23. It's going to be a top heavy storm with all the bad weather to the north. Regardless of what happens Orlando is gonna get some nasty weather. Canceling your trip depends on what you plan on doing there.
  24. 06Z GFS shows landfall in Boca Raton (where I live) at 984mb vs Euro shows landfall in West Palm Beach at 998mb. If you split the difference you get landfall in Boynton Beach at 991mb.
