Satellite and microwave data indicate that Leslie has become a
hurricane again, almost exactly a week after it did the first time.

Leslie has made a nice comeback and has regained hurricane intensity.. She continues to rack up the ACE for sure. She' s hanging around for quite awhile longer too!

This part got me.
The hurricane should continue to lose latitude for a day
or so then get accelerated east-northeastward by a mid-latitude
trough until Friday. After that time, there is a ginormous spread
in the model ensembles [...]

With how serious Michael is, at least we get some humor from the NHC on Leslie. (EDIT: I'm not the only one!)
Leslie is atypically intensifying while moving south-southeastward
at 8 kt. The hurricane should continue to lose latitude for a day
or so then get accelerated east-northeastward by a mid-latitude
trough until Friday. After that time, there is a ginormous spread
in the model ensembles with Leslie's final destination ranging from
Ireland all the way to missing the trough and turning around to the
southwest due to a building eastern Atlantic subtropical ridge.
Compared to 12 hours ago, more of the ensemble members are showing
Leslie getting left behind, which is also reflected in the latest
deterministic runs as well. Something tells me that Leslie has at
least one more trick up its sleeve, so the official forecast shows
this trend, but is very low confidence.

To be fair, her first incarnation only lasted about 2 days.

She's reminding me of Hurricane Kyle (2002) and Hurricane Epsilon ('I HAVE RUN OUT OF THINGS TO SAY...AND THIS ONE WILL BE SHORT.') in terms of storms taking long Atlantic meanders

If it really does end up turning back to the west and surviving, it will surely make it into a handful of miraculous storm tracks and put most to shame in weirdness and longevity.

Don't forget 2012 Nadine, it lasted for more than 20 days and made several transitions from subtropical, to tropical, to extratropical, to tropical, to hurricane...like Leslie.

This is the type of systems that I miss and make me sad when they finally dissipate.

I like this gem from Forecaster Blake in Discussion #55:

...I was too
premature last night...


(Referring to predicting Leslie beginning extratropical transition, but :lol: )

This is Day 18 with no end in sight. NHC sees another 5 days, comfortably. GFS keeps this storm going another 10+ days. Everyone is focus on Michael, for obvious reasons, but I think Leslie is one of the coolest storms in several years.

Yeah I could see this storm setting all types of records.

Some more zingers from an openly frustrated forecaster in the latest discussion:

I clearly drew the small straw in having to make Leslie's forecast
tonight because this situation is resulting in one of the largest
guidance spreads I have seen, about 1000 miles on day 3 and over
2000 miles at day 5.


Starting to resemble some of the weary quips made in the latter stages of the 2005 season. Who'd have thought in the "unfavorable" year of 2018?
