I see the models finally break this ridge down around the 8 to 10 day mark.

The 18zGFS shows this feature heading to Florida at 324 but as we all know it’s fantasyland beyond 120 hrs


I would love to be able to see these model runs, everyone talks about the runs, but never shows the animation of them, where can I go to see them, or maybe even better, post them here. Thanks!


You can see the GFS and other model animations at www.tropicaltidbits.com

You can see them ove ron Tropical Tidbits.

GFS latest run is here: https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/?model=gfs&region=atl&pkg=z850_vort

You can use that page to select the various models. Model watching is interesting to those of us who enjoy it but not something you should ever make plans around or be overly concerned about. :)

Yeah I noticed this too. I hope and pray that we are FINALLY seeing an end to the seemingly ever present +NAO and FINALLY get Autumn started in this part of the world. Sick of the heat!

Gfs several runs in a row shows a low forming in the gulf and moving into the Florida Peninsula At 200 hours to 216 hours. I’m not sure if it is baroclinic or tropical.

Gfs seems to have it hanging over Florida for 4 days as a possible slow moving td.

The site for most of them is
https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models
The rest, simply search up the model name. Or ask here.


When do you all think that cold front will be coming through? I'm down in Extreme South Broward County. If, right now, the current one(that could easily die,) has barely scraped Alabama, imagine how long until it gets here! Look at the NAM.

Where did you get that graphic of the NAM? I like it but I don't like what it is showing. That cool air.....so close but so far......

At first, it looks like its getting closer, then the day comes and pushes back about 90% of what has been achieved throughout the night.(exaggeration)


It took a while to get that. First, I downloaded the gif from tropicaltidbits.com (NAM 3 KM)
I then realized it was 5 megabytes too bigfor tinypic.com, and not wanting to have to make an account, I went to ezgif to compress it. It brought me 1 megabyte over the limit, which is 5 megabytes.) So I cropped it. Problem solved!It actually took like 20 minutes to do.
The NAM isn't the best but it's pretty good with temperatures, right?

I totally understand the get on your knees and pray for season end posts but IMO they really don’t have much room in a scientific 1st forum. If that is what this is? I don’t know.... I certainly wouldn’t mind this outcome if your roll of the dice turns up double sixes but it just doesn’t do much for sharing of real info when it’s only 10/15.

Ok we can always watch that baroclinic low pressure system the gfs keeps developing in the gom. Bring me some cooler wx down into FL and I’ll be happy. :wink:

There are some hints of changes in the weather pattern for Florida, maybe some cooler weather in time for Halloween?

GFS and Euro both continue to show some type of development starting in about 9 days off the Texas Coast, moving towards the Florida Panhandle or Big Bend.

Looks more like a very sheared frontal low to me. Gulf of Mexico definitely closed for business you’d think and hope after that.
