    YES! Also mirin the term Barrettese

    Not quite sure what declaring everything "Joever" does for the overall discussion (it does make the thread a bit unreadable) but I do appreciate the enthusiasm for the field. We all end up on this site for the same reasons.

    joever/jova means “over”

    Regardless, what a show put on so far by Beryl so far. I am glad the medium term outlook beyond initial impacts in the Lesser Antilles is getting more shine on here. Shear awaits, and unfortunately it will impact the system after the Windwards. There is a cap on what the storm can do down the line, it's so difficult to have a Caribbean Cruiser thread the needle, especially in early July. My only pause is that the NHC forecast seems to be flaunting climatology towards the tail end of their forecast, though it makes total sense to not forecast rapid weakening at 96-120 hours. It's foolish to stamp your name on an RI forecast that far out, equally so to do the same for rapid weakening outside of the high latitudes.

    What do you think is the maximum possible peak for Beryl?

    Beryl has a chance to really go to town in the next 24-36 hours. Folks in the islands need to be prepared for a significant hit.

    Hurricane Beryl Discussion Number   6
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL022024
    1100 PM AST Sat Jun 29 2024
    
    Beryl continues to strengthen rapidly this evening. Cold convective 
    cloud tops between -70 to -80 C are now wrapping fully around the 
    center after earlier being confined to its southern semicircle. 
    After the prior advisory, a late arriving SSMIS microwave pass 
    revealed a small closed eyewall now exists. The latest subjective 
    and objective intensity estimates range between 65 to 80 kt and 
    based on the continued improved structure on satellite imagery, the 
    intensity is set at 75 kt, towards the upper end of those estimates. 
    As earlier mentioned, both the NOAA and Air Force Reserve Hurricane 
    Hunters will investigate Beryl tomorrow morning, which will provide 
    our first in-situ data to assess the hurricane. 
    
    Beryl has maintained a just north of due west fast motion this 
    evening, estimated at 280/17 kt. An extensive mid-level ridge 
    remains positioned poleward of the hurricane, and Beryl should 
    maintain a westward to west-northwestward motion at a similar speed 
    over the next couple of days. This track will take the hurricane 
    over the Windward Islands overnight on Sunday into Monday. A subtle 
    weakness in this ridging in the 24-48 hour period should help the 
    hurricane gain a bit of latitude before the ridge builds back in 
    over the southeastern U.S. by the middle of next week, likely 
    resulting in a turn back more westward by the end of the forecast 
    period. The NHC forecast track is just a touch left and slower 
    compared to the prior advisory, but remains very close to a blend of 
    the consensus aids HCCA and TVCN.
    
    Unfortunately Beryl has all the ingredients favorable for continued 
    rapid intensification in the short-term. The light to moderate 
    easterly shear that had been affecting the system is subsiding, 
    while the hurricane remains embedded in a large area of deep-layer 
    moisture and over 28-29 C sea-surface temperatures. The small and 
    well-organized inner core likely means the hurricane should take 
    full advantage of these pristine conditions, and both the GFS and 
    ECMWF versions of SHIPS-RII show rapid intensification indices 7 to 
    10 times above climatology. Thus, the latest NHC intensity forecast 
    will explicitly show rapid intensification over the next day, making 
    Beryl a very dangerous Category 3 hurricane before it moves across 
    the Windward islands by tomorrow night. Once Beryl enters the 
    Caribbean, there could be a marked increase in westerly vertical 
    wind shear as a strong easterly low-level jet, common for this time 
    of year in the eastern Caribbean Sea, will keep Beryl moving quickly 
    westward against lighter upper-level upper-level easterlies 
    partially eroded by a deep-layer trough off the Eastern Seaboard. 
    Thus some weakening is forecast after 48 hours as Beryl moves 
    further into the Caribbean. The NHC intensity forecast remains close 
    to the reliable consensus aids and now shows a peak intensity of 110 
    kt in 36 hours, though a few of the regional-hurricane models do 
    peak Beryl stronger than shown here.
    
    
    Key Messages:
    
    1. Beryl is expected to be a dangerous major hurricane when it 
    reaches the Windward Islands late Sunday night or Monday, bringing 
    destructive hurricane-force winds and life-threatening storm surge.  
    Hurricane Warnings are in effect for much of the Windward Islands.
    
    2. Heavy rainfall and localized flooding is expected across the
    Windward Islands Sunday night and Monday.
    
    3. Interests in the central and western Caribbean should monitor the 
    progress of this system.  Users are reminded that there is large 
    uncertainty at days 4 and 5 and to not focus on the specific details 
    of the track or intensity forecast.

    What's the max Dvorak you think Beryl would peak at?

    Barrett is just saying in millennialspeak, that if Beryl keeps on intensifying like she is and if she strikes the GoM, it will be extremely bad for everyone on the coast all along the GoM. VERY extremely bad. He is also saying that there were no major hurricanes to hit the Lesser Antilles in the past ~ 170 years or so. That was what Barrett meant when he remarked, Not a molecule.

    I love millennialspeak, and I am a late baby boomer lmao

    Well, baby boomer/Gen X cusp, I guess

    Correct.

    Also not a molecule means nada in this case
