USCG RS Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Then that would be a disaster for the weather worldNot just the weather world. If all models begin to show ots only to snap back with a category 4/5 hurricane barreling up the EC, that would be exceedingly dangerous.

NYC10023 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 That would be something I was down in Tampa when Hurricane Charlie was forecast to hit (my family is down south in Sanibel/Cape Coral) That was similar, they were expecting it to just pass by on it's way up the coast as a Cat 1-2, then all of a sudden at 2pm it was a Cat4 and made that sharp turn into Punta Gorda/Pt. Charlotte. That was crazy. They had about an hour to find shelter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayson Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 I am starting to get a bit nervous... does Joaquin have a pending 3rd act? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tekken_Guy Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I am starting to get a bit nervous... does Joaquin have a pending 3rd act? I really hope not, seeing that due to the senseless tragedy in Oregon, Joaquin has in one day become an afterthought to most Americans. Fortunately, Joaquin looks to be moving away, but in the case that it doesn't we aren't going to want to be like "Oh my god, we've been so focused on Oregon that we forgot about Joaquin!"

IsentropicLift Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 18z runs can occasionally do some whacky things. I'd wait for 00z to see if the trend continues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyDabbundo Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 At this point. Watch the water vapor. Look for trough interaction. Models are secondary at this point, because we know the two scenarios. The margin between trough interaction and not is unbelievably thin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why they do this. I can understand being cautious, but some stories I read we're just nuts. They made it seems as if it was set in stone that we were going to get a direct hit from this thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyWx Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Minor amounts of land interaction but quite a lot of slow spinning over the same waters. Could be some upwelling. The SW drifting seems to have been a lot deeper than expected. I'm not entirely convinced this thing is going to hairpin turn the way the models are expecting. I think you might be right about that. Was it really modeled to be this far south and close to Florida? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoSki14 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Impacts may not be direct but there's going to be some serious coastal impacts due to the pressure gradient alone. (Coastal flooding, erosion, minor flooding 1-3" rains) Also parts of the Carolinas and Mid-Atlantic could be looking at a foot or more of rain (not directly related but still).

JerseyWx Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I don't think so... but I think the latest frames show a slight drift north. Yeah I think it should start to go North soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForestHillWx Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 The water vapor loop is quite impressive. If the models weren't so locked in, I might think this storm would make a direct hit on Hatteras. A question for those more experienced, is it more the strength of the ULL in North Georgia (lack of having a negative tilt) that will fail to capture the storm or is the position and strength of the ridge in the Atlantic the reason Joaquin will escape out to see?

A question for those more experienced, is it more the strength of the ULL in North Georgia (lack of having a negative tilt) that will fail to capture the storm or is the position and strength of the ridge in the Atlantic the reason Joaquin will escape out to see? It's a combination of both. If the Ridge in the Atlantic is stronger (ie with Sandy the NAO was approx - 2) it would give the ULL enough time to get its act together to force a capture. Similarly, if the ULL was currently stronger, it would have a better shot at capturing despite the weaker ridging. That said, a strong hurricane like Joaquin tends to create it's own environment as well and right now it's just meandering, so time will tell.

Juliancolton Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Joaquin has been the ugliest Cat 4 I've seen in a long time. Usually you can find at least one satellite product that makes a storm sexy, be it an extravagant IR color scheme, the first sunrise visible image, a well-timed MW pass... not so with Joaquin. That said, the system is making for some mighty impressive WV loops in concert with the trough of doom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
