On the leaving behind or circling back down into the central Carib. Sea model runs. I would think the dry air and shear from the trough digging would keep whatever is left of Tomas by this point in check. There would have to be some dry air entrained from the NW and UL winds screaming out of the west or SW.

Conditions look really favorable, The GFDl is possible imo.

Conditions are good, but I don't think he has enough time/space to blow up to 130 knots. I do think the other models are low-balling it though. Cat 3 seems very plausible.

Tbh the EC has done a decent job short term wise (many doubted including myself as so given he was a cat 1-2 then). A few days ago it advertised weakening storm and not a very strong system which has panned out as so. Today's EC still has a system but a very broad one at that moving through Hispaniola after brushing eastern Jamaica.

I understand RI is very possible however given what's happened with previous systems in the Carib (i.e. Richard, matthew etc they've taken their sweet time to get it together) it might not happen.

I say this with great caution given the circumstances of places in it's way...

Now the next question seems to be once Tomas gets north of Haiti could it get left behind by the trough? If so, does a weaker Tomas get caught up in the lower to mid level flow and sent back toward the west as the 12z NGaps shows? Going to be interesting to see how this plays out.

I don't think currently it's a real concern. After the trough passes by conditions there won't be friendly (usually isn't this time of year). Dry sheared air in place so if it does get left behind there won't be much left after it takes a beating by the trough itself. No models really develop anything post Hispaniola. It's been the case since Paula that anything heading north of the Antilles gets bullied.

The 2 AM NGFDL shows Tomas shooting straight north towards North Carolina.

Of course, it would probably be sheared to bits by then if that were to realize. I also noted a few other models sending it back southwest after beating Haiti, and the GFDL sends it SE towards Puerto Rico after passing Hispaniola. I saw all this on wunderground.com. Nuts huh?

I looked on raleighwx's site, and the Euro deepens Tomas to 983 mb by 12Z tomorrow. It's probably unrealistic, and the Euro, at least anecdotally, seems to be overly aggressive in baroclinicly enhanced situations. But, the Euro's intensity progs have been pretty good in the deep tropics.

Speaking of the EURO,after the trough lifts,it leaves behind Tomas.

Nam would be horrific for Haiti. It leaves Tomas on and around Haiti for 4 days.

Score one for the Euro with Tomas now at 987.
