Interesting Tidbit I found this morning...

[yoda]

There are some concerns along the East Coast, since a 500MB weakness will be
positioned across the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley while a powerful subtropical
high (597dcm) is anchored southeast of NWF. This alignment of systems might
allow for the tropical system now moving through the Lesser Antilles to
approach the NC Outer Banks and Delmarva Peninsula (but be careful about accepting
the Global idea of a possible hurricane....).

I found this in the website off Lary Cogsgrove's Discussion... sorry for the direct copying.. but is he good in tropical seasons? but are there any model or backups to which he might be right? I know this is like 7-10 days out but very interesting nonetheless...

[Tip]

Actually the only global model latching on to this storm is the Canadian and is probably what Larry is referring. It really cranks the storm up off the Outer Banks and slowly moves it NNE.

Ah thanks a bunch Tip!!! Thanks for the site as well. This will prove to be interesting IF it can keep going, which it may not, or may. I will be watching very closely though.

Wow!!!!! I live on Cape Cod, this is definately interesting........

[The Dark Knight]

Could you give the site URL.....Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

[yoda]

um the Candian model site?

Looks nothing more than some High Surf. Wax your boards.

[The Dark Knight]

No, sorry, I mean that guys website.....

[yoda]

Oh ok!! Sorry there Dark Knight!

Here it is...

Curiously, the ECMWF and
GGEM versions see this feature and present it as a threat to the East Coast
in about 7-10 days. The European model scenario shows linkage with a frontal
structure off the coastline of the Carolinas early next week and implies a
potential excessive rainfall event from SE VA into E GA.


huh?

[The Dark Knight]

Thanks for the link Yoda!!!

[yoda]

Ur welcome Dark Knight!!

To no one in particular.. but why is the ECMWf and GGEM models also showing that this may come up the East Coast?

I found this in the website off Lary Cogsgrove's Discussion... sorry for the direct copying.. but is he good in tropical seasons? ..

He's pretty hideously bad, probably the worst on tropical of any of the various independent actual meteorologists with web discussions.

Really doesn't have a passion for the tropics or watch very closely, occasionally goes on tirades against NHC for classifying stuff he deems too lame to classified (hilariously, once did so the day Barry almost became a hurricane on landfall in the Gulf.)

Has an unaccountable fascination for the GGEM (Canadian) model for tropical systems, when it's probably the worst global model for tropical tracks.

He had Isabel making landfall in New Jersey basically right to the end (based on hugging the GGEM.)

Most of his readers are New England Snow Weenies so tropically he has a Northeastern Wishcast bias.

Yeowser..the power bashing..I guess we should thank you for clarifying his position..
