  1. I almost think about the chases I missed as much as the ones I hit on. For every Florence there’s a Michael. For every Fiona there is an Ian. Honest to God, having a big in person event scheduled the day Ian made landfall may have been a contributing factor to me leaving my last job. Aren’t we at or near peak climo for severe around here? I’m not really feeling bullish about the back half of storm season given the crap this far.
  2. Multiple tor warnings down there. Surprised you didn’t give it a go.
  3. You'd think it were August with this look in the eastern MDR.
  4. Pretty weenie GFS and Euro runs today. It’s fantasy range but you just don’t see a long track CV this time of year like the happy hour GFS, even on guidance.
  5. Just a quick gif I put together. There used to be a fantastic resource that had daily TCHP/d26 daily plots going back decades. Until the gov made it password protected. This is recent OHC, the scale changes pre 2016.
  6. A little harder to run a comparison, but they’re high end anomalous as well from what I’ve seen.
  7. I mean, the Euro has some general vorticity sure, but it’s nowhere close on the operational or ensemble guidance to supporting a tropical cyclone IMO. That’s an island to me. I’m just not sure that there’s enough in the western Caribbean to spin something up. Could be wrong, but I just don’t see a conducive enough environment yet.
  8. 12z Euro trended more robust with the wave leaving the African coast today. Pretty strong model consensus that the MDR is ripe for a TC next week.
  9. This looks awesome. Not tropical but it looks like the low this weekend has trended a little stronger on the Euro. Messy weekend on tap.
  10. I’m still deeply skeptical of anything coming out of the western Caribbean. GFS and its ensembles are on an island right now—doesn’t mean it can’t score a coup but it just seems TC genesis happy there, which is a known bias.
  11. Summer of bore continues as we spend this mid-June afternoon writing about PG rated tropical fantasies and what could have been in a winter that passed thirteen years ago. What a time to be alive.
  12. It won’t happen but it raises an interesting question for me: what’s the earliest hurricane strike on record in NE?
  13. Quite early. Operational guidance has gotten more aggressive with TC genesis in the MDR but the signal has been there for a while. Not sure about the environment in the western Atlantic in 7-10 days though allowing for something tangible to survive with a TUTT lurking. It’s historically warm across much of the basin. Just outrageous anomalies.
  14. Here’s a real storm Wild day down south.
  15. I’m intrigued. The overall environment out in the MDR looks good as we enter the last 1/3 of June.
  16. Radar looked horrific until it didn’t.
  17. Weak sauce here. A little surprised I didn’t capture more lightning given how active the cells to the west were. I’m pretty annoyed at how boring it has been, but it is what it is.
  18. On cue, the operational guidance is starting to respond to what should become an increasingly favorable environment in the MDR in the last 1/3 of June. Still a bit early, but my interest has increased a little.
  19. I have low standards generally when it comes to severe around here. If I can get a few good lightning captures, I’d call that a win. The backed winds piece is interesting to me.
