0Z run of the models

#42 Postby panamacity_wxman » Tue Sep 14, 2004 12:24 am

Interesting that the models now come into agreement on Mobile landfall. I think we may have to wait for the 6z or 12z before we can say for sure.

Pressure falls in SE AL and SW GA

#43 Postby panamacity_wxman » Tue Sep 14, 2004 12:34 am

I think that a surface low may be trying to develop in SE GA and this may cause a weak surface trough to form and may begin to turn Ivan more easterly. Any thoughts?

Good news for New Orleans, bad news for areas eastward.
I'm still sticking with a MS/AL landfall. I hope he weakens to
at least a cat. 2-3 storm. I hate to see any city feel the full
brunt of this monster.

Very interesting, but....
From the AL/FL border to P'cola is not HUGE.
P'cola is still even in the Mobile NWS area.

More Northward Movement

#48 Postby panamacity_wxman » Tue Sep 14, 2004 1:08 am

Based on the latest fix. It appears Ivan is moving more North and west. He went .4 degree north and only .2 west. If this trend continues, the 6z model runs may be very interesting for P'cola and points east.

The UKMET

#49 Postby panamacity_wxman » Tue Sep 14, 2004 2:05 am

the 6z UKMET is more to the east now. Looks like landfall between Mobile and P'cola. Could be a bad sign that Ivan is moving more north than west. Have to wait and see.

Hmmmmm--- The trend is our friend and if this more Northward movement continues models will likely continue to shift east... Panama city? Appalachee Bay??

What is wrong with the 6z run? It appears that some kind of data outage occurred and we don't have the 6z run to review. NHC shifted the landfall .5 degrees further east on this latest advisory.

I'm unable to ingest the 6Z tropical run.
PSU seems not to be updating ATTM.
Nice timing.
I'll see if I can get the map updated manually
EC will be on after 9AM TU.

Last night's Euro model shows an incredible high pressure building in SW Atlantic. I can't see Ivan or the other storm penetrating very far northeasat while this thing is in place and we're talking about ten days out!

Basically in agreement w/ the NHC, although it does clip the MS Delta region of LA.

12Z GFS - landall just west of Mobile Bay on Thursday morning - not looking good for the folks in Mobile.

12Z Euro - not sure but it looks like landfall is somewhere in MS or LA.

After looking closely at the 12z ECMWF, I am led to believe that Jeanne goes over S FL, goes into the GOM, and then makes second landfall near Pensacola. But, if one looks at the 168 hours out page.. and at the FAR RIGHT... What exactly is that HUGE low pressure system? Is that Karl?
