Well the good news is Kingarabian in Hawaii shouldn't have to worry about any long-tracking crossovers threatening Hawaii this year.

Shucks I dont get to see storms be ripped to shreds before they safely pass south of me. Honestly Hawaii's georgraphy keeps it safe and the EPAC just has better fish storms than any other basin IMO.

The system I mentioned yesterday or the day before has finally reappeared in the latest GFS run. It’s still showing something developing on Thursday or Friday. The 00z Euro still shows it, too.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

Re: 2020 EPAC Season
And they added it.

An area of low pressure is likely to form a few hundred miles
south-southwest of the Gulf of Tehuantepec by the middle of the
week. Environmental conditions are then forecast to be conducive
for slow development while the system moves west-northwestward at
10 to 15 mph well south of Mexico.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.

The vorticity seems to be there, but it never consolidates. However, the GFS, CMC, and ICON remain rather aggressive (CMC and ICON show at least one additional system forming by the end of their runs), and the NAVGEM shows a disturbance associated with this potential system.

The Euro hasn’t been as good these last six months. Remember how badly it busted with Kammuri and Nisarga.

Re: 2020 EPAC Season
IMO the models just aren't adjusting to the unfavorable base state in the EPAC that's been there since summer 2019.

It's been the most accurate over the last few weeks in this basin and is historically a very strong performer here.

0z Euro shows a pretty desolate landscape. Seems realistic

An area of low pressure is forecast to form a few hundred miles
south of the coast of Mexico later this week. Gradual development
of the system will be possible by the weekend while it moves
west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph well south of Mexico.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.

Re: 2020 EPAC Season
If this strong hurricane happens in long range,it would get a ton of ACE as it crosses to CPAC.
