SNE "Tropical" Season Discussion 2020

given the dry air and modest SW shear and tiny size it’s closed eye wall will have some trouble to deal with 

Its eyeball has improved as Rev posted but it’s satellite presentation shows elongation N-S and it’s probably up in the air if this eye wall can maintain itself ..on its Florida approach 

This could be a weak TS to a solid Hurricane - tiny storms obviously can surprise

Gonna be hard to get a 90 100 mph cane with all this dry air entrainment and erosion of the eywall

Bursty convection, fugly appearance, battling dry air and shear. Has that funny secondary lobe of convection like Matthew did a few years back. Not classic by any means, but a good warm up exercise as we get into the meat of the season.

It's been steady state all day long....fluctuations. The environment is neutral now, and will degrade tomorrow, then become reasonably favorable on approach to Carolinas.

First Call in relation to Hurricane Isaias. Final will be tomorrow night. Looks to brush the Florida coast between West Palm Beach and Melbourne as a minimal hurricane early Sunday, before veering north and perhaps even weakening to a tropical storm. However it should enter a period of intensification on Monday and perhaps strike near Cape Fear, NC approaching the threshold of a category 1/2 hurricane.
Threat here in New England is primarily heavy rains, which is not really much of a threat since the region is enduring modest drought conditions.
