  1. It appears that once Fiona pushes out, this system would have a nice outflow jet on the eastern side when it's south of Cuba and starts strengthening like mad.
  2. Fiona is now the first major hurricane of the season.
  3. As Fiona strengthens and heads towards Bermuda, we must keep an eye on the wave in the Central Atlantic.
  4. I can't believe this is moving at 10 mph. It seems as though it's almost stationary.
  5. 6pm Video Update on Fiona https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bg-l1k4xgL0
  6. Good grief. This is atleast another Hortense, if not Maria-type disaster for Puerto Rico.
  7. Here we go. It's amazing how fast even a Cat 1 storm can knock the power out.
  8. This storm reminds me a lot of Hurricane Hortense in September 1996.
  9. 11:30pm Video Update on Tropical Storm Fiona for those interested
  10. Starting to feel more and more confident it will turn out to sea after impacting Hispaniola, but still far too early to take your eyes off her. Here's a video update for you night owls. https://youtu.be/JNZM0EZlfUY
  11. GFS is bull. A Cat 4 hurricane nearly stationary for 100 hours? Gimme a break.
  12. I don't know guys...the GFS run shows Fiona deepening from 1000 mb to 971 mb in 18 hours as it crosses Puerto Rico and the Mona Passage. I find that difficult to believe right now.
  13. Given how naked the center of Fiona is right now, I'd favor the weaker solution in the short term.
  14. EURO showing a hurricane landfall in SE Florida. Oops. Looking like it's starting to see the same setup the CMC is showing.
  15. Without that SW shear, this thing could be a hurricane fast. I'm still not buying the poleward movement in 96 hrs, especially not as abrupt as some of the guidance shows. Despite rounding the periphery of a ridge, a sheared tropical storm will always tend to move more west.
  16. Well regardless of development, the pattern favors impacts to land. I'd be surprised if this turns east of the Bahamas.
  17. Ugh I hate systems like this. Center reformations and not knowing if they'll end up in the Bahamas or the Gulf. Atleast it is something to watch.
