Re: HURRICANE IRMA LOUNGE

Quote:

This system is so powerful that it virtually controls the environment surrounding it. My fear is that the statistical models may not be able to factor the potential for Irma to literally over power the customary blocking features to the west and north. That being the case a more westerly point before the turn is still logical and not out of the questionp




Doug, can you cite some examples of recent history storms where this occurred? Just curious if there is a precedent.
