Re: Two Things to Watch and Flossie

While the CMC is known for blowing up systems where none occur, it's having a scary time with the gulf system that is being watched, turning it into a major storm that loops around the Yucatan and then hits Mexico. I don't hold much credence to the model given that GFS, NOGAPS, and UKMET aren't seeing it yet, but it is still a system to pay attention to.

Edit - adding additional reference:


UKMET shows a possible system looping around the Yucatan, but doesn't deepen it the way the CMC does. Link:

Edit 2:

The 12Z model runs don't develop the gulf system at all.
