This is all intended as an early plausibility so please don't throw the gallows at me if it doesn't pan out. I just thought it amusing that Accuweather came on Fox News the other day and said that Wilma "will be the last hurricane to make landfall in the U.S. this season". We'll see, but, if this next system evolves, they may end up right for the wrong reasons (I hate that) because large scale synoptics "at this time" appear as though indeed, they would not allow it (more likely) to get W of ~75 lon. Time will tell, but the models were premature about the Wilmas potential recurve into the westerlies, so it may just be that there is a meridianal bias to the current middle range guidance - which could indicate a W correction...
I heard Joe B say on some radio talk show that Wima is the last hurricane because the trough that is going to pick her up will clear out the atmosphere.... now i said to myself.. i am no met but that just sounds unscientific and foolish....
are you sure he didnt say last one for awhile. that would be correct since the big front is going to clear everything out.
Actually, to be fair... it wasn't Joe B... I'm sorry - I cannot recall the gentleman's name but it was some other senior level dude at Accuweather.... But, it is possible that Joe B made a statement as well, that I am not aware of...
