If something were to make it into the Gulf are we still looking at a possible landfall in Texas? I forgot what the reason was you said
that might could be a possibility.
the newer models are showing the ridge getting stronger and staying anchored more around texas, so that raises the possibility that it'd just run due west into mexico. still a few days out so the models can change. -HF

really.... the first sat images after the eclipse just look too good not to give it an upgrade at this point. if it's not upgraded at 5... I'll... I dunno... be very confused I suppose.
But whatever develops would have to take a *really* hard right turn to avoid the islands at this point. Hopefully they're paying attention down there....

Atlantic Tropical Weather Discussion is out an hour early...
And you are almost 100% correct in your read.

E OF BARBADOS NEAR 12N54W MOVING WNW 10-15 KT. SATELLITE
IMAGERY INDICATES THAT THE CIRCULATION AROUND THE SURFACE LOW
HAS INTENSIFIED AND IS ABOUT TO BE UPGRADED TO A TROPICAL
DEPRESSION.

95's outflow pattern is looking more impressive, especially in the southeast quadrant:

So far all the models are tracking both systems away from Florida. Do you guys agree that that's the most likely scenerio? It's getting too active out there.
Thanks!

From my read none of the models show Florida having a problem. But, they have not passed us yet.....
The only reason I think we're OK is because they installed my new electric shutter yestaerday on my big window. Since I paid $6000 we'll never have a storm

uh.... at least one - and possibly 2 - of the models are tracking 96L into or just south of the Keys and then turning it northward. Long term that could indicate an impact in the Panhandle (where I am!).
The soon-to-be TD 17/Phillippe (Lyons on the weather channel was indicating that winds at the surface are already T.S. strength and his prediction was that the system would bypass T.D. status and go directly to T.S.) appears to be an island problem and then a fish spinner, hopefully. Although the models longer term I think turn it back to the west from what I have heard.
i'm wondering which models you're looking at. i haven't checked the dynamical ones, but the globals all pretty much show it zipping out into the gulf wsw towards mexico. i'll go take a look, but think you're mistaken. -HF

What has me worried is most the models I see, (may be looking at the wrong ones) don't develop 95l till later and show it going well east of the islands. I can't see at this point how it won't be west of where they all have it gaining strength.

Well since it is already developing... you may be right... although the weather channel is still pointing out that the models have it moving north well east of the islands (which it is already nearing?).... and I don't see much northward movement of the clouds on visible imagery. I think the models are wrong on this one right now, which wouldn't be shocking since it's not yet fully developed.
