Euro bringing the time frame in now. 96 hours we'll see a low beginning to consolidate, 120 hours+ it takes off.

Why did the NHC remove the yellow marker?

@kingarabian,

I think they removed it before the Euro got a chance to complete its run.

But the GFS and Euro have had this for the past 4 days, with strong ensemble support

Maybe the Para models? I looked at the regular Gfs and Euro for yesterday and the day before and they dont show much within 120hrs. They showed something but after the 7-8 day range. Today on the 12z I see very little within 120hrs on the regular Gfs and Euro. Theu Euro shows it getting stronger from 144hrs and beyond.

The yellow marjer has been gone for 3 TWO cycles now. Look at the TWO archive.

That's interesting. I thought they were right on the money when Blake circled the area for next weeks system.

I thought usually they put the 5 day marker out for future development, and keep the odds very low until the time frame starts to come in. The models don't show much before 5 days, but they do show the area of convection within 96hrs, which I thought is enough to warrant the 5 day marker.

I suspect it will be added to the TWO in the next 24 hours or so, unless the models lose it this evening.

If it turns out like what ECMWF has,it would boost bigtime the ACE that is right now below normal.

As Klotzbach pointed out. There hasn't been a cat 2+ storm in the entire northern hemisphere in 2017. Maybe the EPac can break that next week.

Agreed. Intensifying Cat.2 moving west into more favorable conditions. Also starts to show the 2nd system behind it @ the 240hr frame. EPS showing strong support for a 2nd system behind Eugene as well.
That would bring the outbreak to 3 total storms including Dora, with all 3 becoming hurricanes.

July I believe, typically sees 3-4 storms and since it's early and because the Euro I believe keeps a nice CCKW over the EPAC, we could still see more systems through mid to late July

Basically means that the EPAC will be trending towards another above average/hyperactive season for what would be 4th the straight season...

Heavy argument can be made that Dora was a strong Cat.2 at its peak.

Euro pulls a fast one; now developing that initial system again that Blake circled in 3 days ago. Development begins in 48-72hrs.

Euro also continues to develop a 3rd system behind it similar to the GFS.

Euro is not playing games. Development in 72 hours on the first system, 2nd system bottoms out at 950mb.

06z GFS albeit weaker, is now coming in line with the Euro showing 3 back to back systems, with the second system dominating.

I'm fully expecting a marker from the NHC by the next TWO since development starts in 2 and a half days.

Cycloneye, I believe that's the second system. Look at how it swallows up the first and third systems though. Crazy!
