Very ominous setup for FL and the gulf.

The trough split is now being shown in the short range both by operational and ensemble based guidance, so there's pretty high confidence that will likely occur. With that occurring, the ridge is allowed to stretch farther west than it otherwise would, opening the door to US impacts from this system.

I think we can say after a span of just like 12 hours of modeling, season cancel is no longer an option

Colors of lost purpose on the canvas of irrelevance

Not a meteorologist, in fact more of an idiot than anything. You should probably check with the NHC or a local NWS office for official information.

Kind of an Andrew like scenario, where the trough split and allowed the HP to extend all the way to Central Gulf, right?

Similar setup that the CMC had. This is probably going towards the Florida panhandle on this run.

Classic setup for a Florida strike here being projected by the models. Let’s hope it doesn’t come to pass.
