Now that the computers can put in the correct wind speed of 180 MPH and pressure of 910 mb, maybe they they will get a better understanding of what he is going to do.

I agree, this is what worries me most about these model runs, they think Dorian should be going wnw every time but he doesn't. It would likely affect everything that happens in the rest of the run.

Re: ATL: DORIAN - Models
If GFS were to verify, Dorian would need to start moving WNW right now...

Dorian’s turn is going to be as shockingly late as a missed period in a bad relationship.

Disclaimer: 50% of the time I have no clue of what I am talking about. Chances are I am taking a less than educated guess that sounds good because 10 years ago I stole Mike Watkins book 'The Hurricane and its Impact'. For official information please direct yourself to the NHC and their cadre of weather geniuses.

Re: ATL: DORIAN - Models
The later that turn the worst for Florida. These model runs are good seeing a more east trend but I do not feel comfortable yet since they don't even seem to grasp his current motion.

Re: ATL: DORIAN - Models
Add the 12Z CMC to list of 12Z runs EAST of respective earlier runs. So, ICON, GFS, Legacy, CMC, and UKMET all east of prior run. 5 out of 5 so far fwiw. But of course we’ll need to see the storm turn in a timely fashion for those to verify.
Anyway, PERHAPS the 6Z consensus will turn out to be the furthest west?? At least there’s a chance.

Re: ATL: DORIAN - Models
Has anyone noticed that when new data from the upper air missions happen every model shifts farther west and some significantly

It's not just the motion, it's the forward speed. It should have slowed a few hours ago but it's still moving at a similar pace as always, suggesting steering currents still have some punch left over.

When was the last upper air mission? 0Z?

Re: ATL: DORIAN - Models
Does anyone have a comparison between what models predicted f.e. 24 hours ago, versus where Dorian actually is right now?

I have begun to rely on the satellite eyeball model.

Re: ATL: DORIAN - Models
Although you never say never, I do feel better now that most if not all of the models are now trending east of Florida.......I'd probably give it about a 5% chance of it actually hitting Florida at this point. That's a great thing!
I'm not evil, I don't want it to hit Florida, or any state for that matter... I love the State of Florida and a hurricane of this strength would just devastate it and the economy. It would be bad news for everyone....I just wish our good friends in the Bahamas could have been spared
