0Z tonight its Carribean development is much later, misses all the East Coast troughing this weekend...

And thus you end up with a slow-moving, weaker storm stuck in the Bay of Campeche for a billion years:

Canadian Day 10:

No Florida hit, nothing up the East coast.

The ECMWF has totally lost whatever limited similar hint of a storm it had. No support from other models.

Probably way too much hullabaloo over one run, of the Canadian, no less, from last night. Were Barometer Bob and Bastardi making a big deal of it?

Whatever is in the Carribean right now is in a pretty sorry state; though it does appear upper level conditions are actually improving at the same rate the models indicated.

I agree, the Canadian is not one of the better tropical models. As for JB, he didn't forecast any development in the Gulf, he just mentioned the possibility of development - "something to WARCH" as he says..... :wink:

Wishcaster Law One:
One run does not a *honk* make.


I can see this coming in as a TD but see Juan "no time" there.
