So far the wave is pretty far south, and to the north, and west is SAL.

gabby eats out sal, guaranteed

Now 10/60 @BarryStantonGBP

For the first time in a couple of days, the UKMET (0Z) has TCG for this. However, after moving WNW, then WSW for a short time, and then back to WNW, it dissipates at 16.4N, 48.3W:

 The E MDR AOI is now red. This from Michael Lowry is a bit concerning at least for the E Caribbean:

Models all over the map

Forecast models generally agree on development, but the timing of and placement of development vary wildly, which of course affect the future track.

On the one hand the American GFS is quick to develop the system this week along the northern lobe of the tropical wave and as a result move it farther north and turn it quickly into the Atlantic for next week, missing the islands to the north.

On the other hand, the European model and Google DeepMind’s newest machine learning-based model that performed well during Hurricane Erin, take some time to develop the wave and do so on the southern side, which not surprisingly favors a track farther south and west and toward the eastern Caribbean for the middle part of next week.

———————

 My concern is that Google Deepmind ensembles, which I know little about, did best with Erin per Lowry. As you can see, its 0Z 9/2 run has 6 of its members from the E MDR AEW in a very dangerous location. What I don’t know is how many total members it has. Lowry’s diagram makes it look like most members go toward the Caribbean, but there are only 6 that actually get there by hour 210. Many are slower (still well E) and 4 of them are turning WNW to NW (at the top of his yellow circle) and we can’t see where they go after hour 210. Also, there are two that are just starting to sharply recurve well E of the Caribbean but still within the MDR. But regardless, this ensemble’s avg trajectory does look more dangerous than the EPS and is totally different from the GEFS.

@BarryStantonGBPPlease change this from 10/60 to 30/70. Thanks.

changed + if she does track to the caribbean could she blow up or will she stay weak

 Anything’s possible. It could blow up in especially the W half of the Caribbean if it gets to the E Car pretty weak. 
 By the way, note that per Deepmind that the faster members are more of a threat to the Caribbean/further S.

have you even seen the WCAR/BOC ensembles last night innit?

Barry, I’d rather not address those ITT, but that area may be active by midmonth.

 12Z ICON is much weaker than and S of the 0Z run and has WSW motion to 15N, 49W at 168 well below a 600 dm H5 high at a steady state 1003 mb/TS.

12Z UKMET, after having it for the first run in a couple of days as a TD on the 0Z run (though it later weakened), is back to having the low too weak to be classified as a TC.

 For the record but fwiw since it’s still well out in wild guessing land, the 12Z Euro directly hits Bermuda 9/14-5 as a MH as it moves NE.

12 EPS have b2b majors hitting land, with gabby hitting bermuda and humerto hitting louisiana/texas

but focusing on gabby this is what we have innit
