Ivan the 3rd? [Re: Keith234]
      #31180 - Fri Sep 24 2004 10:50 PM

I know everyone is talking about Jeanne for the time being but Ivan could come back to a cane in my opinion. If that surface trough matains it's self and it tracks into that very warm water we could be seeing a strong storm. I'm tracking the cloud mass for sure because all we need is another arguement on weather it should be called Ivan or not. Back to Jeanne! P.S could someone post a link to the shear models, I seem to have lost it?

I don't think I was clear in that last post...Max Mayfield is feeling a little concerned about this:

"ONLY THE NOGAPS...GFDN...AND ETA
MODELS TAKE JEANNE ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA AND LAKE OKEECHOBEE. THE
NOGAPS AND GFDN MODELS HAVE BEEN VERY CONSISTENT WITH THIS TYPE OF
TRACK THE PAST 36 HOURS. THIS SCENARIO IS SOMEWHAT DISCONCERTING
BECAUSE THOSE ARE THE ONLY MODELS THAT TAKE THE LARGE HIGH/RIDGE
NEAR THE DELMARVA SOUTHWARD TO THE OUTER BANKS OF NORTH CAROLINA
BEFORE MOVING IT TO A POSITION NEAR BERMUDA IN 36 HOURS. THE OTHER
MODELS QUICKLY WEAKEN THE HIGH AND MOVE IT SOUTHEASTWARD. THE EXACT
LOCATION OF THE CENTER OF THE HIGH/RIDGE OVER THE NEXT 12-36 HOURS
WILL DETERMINE HOW FAR WEST JEANNE WILL MOVE BEFORE IT BEGINS TO
MAKE THE TURN NORTHWARD. SPECIAL 18Z UPPER-AIR DATA INDICATE THE
CENTER THE HIGH HAS NOT WEAKENED AND HAS ACTUALLY PUSHED SOUTHWARD
AND IS NOW LOCATED JUST EAST OF WALLOPS ISLANDS IN THE SOUTHERN
DELMARVA. THIS WOULD SUGGEST...AT LEAST IN THE SHORT TERM...THAT
THE NOGAPS-GFDN-ETA SOLUTION IS HANDLING THE STEERING PATTERN THE
BEST. AS A RESULT...NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGE WAS MADE TO THE PREVIOUS
FORECAST TRACK."

THey are getting more data that suggests these models are on to something. The 11pm advisory will probably have this information in the modeling and I am anxious to see the 00Z model runs.

Justin in Miami,

They always send weather baloons up at weather stations, where do you think they get the isobars, isotherms and all that other good stuff? The NOGAPS and UKMET are yes trending to the stronger side with the ridge but then you have the GFS/AVN with the weaker side to it. My forecast is a hybird of the UKMET and the GFS because the GFS likes to break down ridges out of no where and cause a whole bunch of problems. The UKMET is has a general rightward bias and sometimes makes ridges stronger then they normally are but it is an overall good model with thermodynamics and everything.


The big differance is that this time, they are taking measurements from special flights, not the 'normal' hurricane hunter flights, but flights dispatched well north of the hurricane in the area where the hight currently affecting the storm and south west into the 'nose' of the high. They are trying to measure the strength and shape of the high way out over the water in addition to the usual baloon soundings from lan. This is being reported on several TV stations so I give his report credibility.

That will most likely improve the results of the models, more layers of the atmosphere to judge how the high will change over time. But sometimes quanity is not always rewarded with better forecasts, take the Richardson experiment for example.

No Way! IMO, as long as that upper low is in the gulf there won't be anything developing. Not only that I don't think his circulation will ever get back into the gulf. Accuweather has even backed off on him back in the gulf, I think?

GFS 18Z trended west (now thru the center of the state ) - & the NOGAPS, Canadian, ETA, and to some extent UKMET have latched on to more west movement into FL. my thoughts are WPB to Tampa area and then up the Gulf Coast - not a good scenario for where I live in hernando bch

Not familiar with that...care to share?

EDIT: CFHC now in third place, with 9%, trailing only NHC (50%) and wunderground (12%)...of course it's a statistical tie with Intellicast & TWC but WE'RE BEATING ACCUWX (6%), HURRICANE CITY (0%) AND ATWC (0%)!!!

C'mon troops...lets overtake Intellicast...got a feeling NHC will take Florida's electoral votes...lets play Nader!
