Where are the Updated Tropical Models??

#1 Postby Steve H. » Tue Sep 09, 2003 6:35 am

They used to be on the FSU site, but I Can't seem to find them (you know; LBAR, A98E, BAMMS, etc.) WREL hasn't updated them, as they still show 9/5/03 runs. BTW, Isabel will not affect Florida!! She is moving too slowly and will halt before going through the Bahamas. SHe will then wait around for a trough to pick her up. I say this with some confidence, as the center of the high pressure is now forecast to shift to the north Atlantic early next week. Good News. CHeers!!

Do you really think Isabel will not affect Florida? That would be great news for FL residents, but I would certainly continue monitoring Isabel if I were them. Things can change in the next 7 or 8 days.

For those looking for textural data on hurricane models...


WREL is still "pointing" to twister/OSU which isn't updating ATTM :x
I am ingesting now from TPC's server:
ftp://ftp.nhc.noaa.gov/pub/products/nhc/model/
The public ATCF takes some getting used to and practice reading, but that's available here:
ftp://ftp.nhc.noaa.gov/pub/atcf/aid_public/aal132003.dat

I am still trying to resolve the issue on our Model Map page link...may need to setup as an additional FTP page.

I think Isabel will effect Florida. She is not moving TOO slow.. She's actually bookin along. You want slow, look at TD 14 lol

She will continue to go on a West Track or WNW track and if she does turn away from our great state it will be like Floyd where mass evacuations and other precautions will have already had to have taken place to brace for this borderline Category 5

I do think Isabel is gonna be a Florida problem. South, Central, or North, is still the question at hand
