ATL: BARRY - Post-Tropical - Discussion

[Aric Dunn]

Lol that is just a meso vort. Weak small one at that. They never flew the larger more distinct one way to the sw. That pressure means nothing up here.

[GCANE]

Down to 1002.1 mb

Correction, they flew a little further and recorded 994.8 mb

That looks to be only because they gained altitude rapidly. Looks like the mission is over.

I think they are extrapolating the pressure readings to what it would be at the surface.

Hmm. Possibly, but it does not make sense that there is only an east wind there. Would have thought there would be some slight wind change with a pressure that low

[ColdMiser123]

I doubt that is a sign of relocation, especially because that mesovortex to the north is completely devoid of convection.

Satellite still shows multiple mesovortices still orbiting a broad center of circulation, and it appears recon intercepted one of them. Another mesovortex is moving south into an enhanced area of convection, and that might be the one to watch in the coming hours.

Isnt this the dry air over here?

[sau27]

Noticing that the semi naked swirl just interacted with outflow from the MCS blob to the west and blew up some new convection. Not sure what it means - does it help or does the outflow choke it eventually?

[SoupBone]

Looks like 998mb is the actual pressure as the lower reading was in an ascent. However, notice the position - 28.9N 88.7W. That is a very significant relocation.

Is that not NE of its previous?

Yes but that’s not a real center fix

Looks loke that larger vort that is rotating is about to pop. It very well might take over .. and possibly sag further south.

Also appears to be pulling in the smaller vorts to the east. So maybe we will see it happen before sunset.

They found a surface pressure of 994 somewhere?
28.9N isn't the center of the large vort but I suppose its possible the shear caused the vort to look centered much further south?

I agree probably will relocate south..

[ColdMiser123]

That mesovortex to the north will make landfall in <1 hour.

Convection is developing just southwest of another mesovortex at ~27.7N/~89.5W.

That pressure reading from from them climbing and going threw that small meso vort. Disregard it. Its nothing. Watch to the south.

[BRweather]

Looks like all the convection south of Lake Charles is starting to wane. Could allow Barry to start relocating all that energy near the center of circulation. Clouds continuing to cool near the center.

Yes, and it is being moistened by convection.

[TexasF6]

I believe the main center is building under that new blow-up of convection center-mass. The other one east looks ragged. I think this is only the beginning...

Just had a decent rain band move through. Probably had 25-30 mph gusts with heavy rain.

[gfsperpendicular]

The naked swirl just clothed itself with some strong convection from that band.

By convection associated with Barry? Or some other convection?

(Because if it’s Barry itself doing it, then that’s basically sounding too much to me like a mammal moistening inhaled air with its nasal turbinates and...why does my mind come up with this stuff?)

[Blinhart]

Looking at TWC radar it looks like the center is due South of New Orleans already, it would have to start turning NW now to make Morgan City.

[loon]

I was telling some other folks last night, this will be yet another storm in the Gulf where everyone is waiting for the turn
