  1. That really is the norm for landfalling gulf storms. Particularly in October
  2. Fair. The meltdowns will be glorious when the core falls apart over Cuba and makes landfall over the swamps of Florida as an anemic cat 2. Or something like that
  3. Yeah, it's wild how much the hype train has ramped up being 10+ days from a US landfall. I have a feeling the latest Euro won't help either...
  4. Thanks for sharing, I was just researching the island this morning, noticed the speck on the NHC map. There actually is a webcam on the island: https://www.windy.com/en/-Webcams/Canada/Nova Scotia/Sable Island/Sable Island Station/webcams/1408056380?43.930,-59.985,5
  5. One thing I'm noticing is just how massive the models are making this by the time it enters the gulf. Evokes A certain K storm
  6. Also, I believe this is the first recorded case of a major hurricane making landfall on grand turk
  7. The NHC's five day forecast up to this point was near perfect for track
  8. A bit lopsided on microwave and ragged on satellite this morning. Seems like it keeps trying to do an EWRC, but is slow to do so
  9. Structure perhaps degrading a bit over the past few hrs fwiw.
  10. Seems like a situation where land interaction actually helps to push out dry air and tighten the circulation. It may or may not be over land long enough to impede strengthening
  11. HAFS, which seems to be performing well so far, brings Fiona through the middle of the Bahamas
  12. Overnight models seem to be converging on a recurve/surf-maker. Still, wouldn't rule anything out until it's made it through the islands.
  13. Yes but the members that keep it weak also are the ones threatening the coast. I honestly think at this point a slow death in the Caribbean is more likely than a recurve. But if it can survive past the islands who knows, as conditions are likely to improve
  14. The Euro is crawling. makes landfall in West Palm Beach in 9 days as a moderate TS
  15. In the upper levels the Euro seems to have taken a step towards the Canadian with the ridging shifting east and closing the escape route. Keeps it really weak though and seems to make a broad messy system that may have a hard time organizing
  16. GFS is further south. Also, curious how that feature over Florida will end up coming into play
  17. Yeah, his does make it clearer the tracks they end up taking. I just thought it was funny how even though the mean would be over the island, all the individual members appeared to miss in yours
  18. Quite a convective burst in the last hour or so. Impressive for nearing Dmin. Doesn't really look like it's occurring over or near the center, but I don't have that expertise
  19. With a track like that, a weak system is almost more likely to hold together over terrain than a hurricane.
  20. I believe it has been 5 full days since the NHC gave this a 70% chance of development through day 5. I feel like this has to be approaching longest lived cherry and it may never develope
