Looks like it strengthened from 1005MB to 1002MB along the southern coast of Hispaniola, it may even be inland now I can't tell.

Strengthening over Hispaniola? :eek:


Yeah, that's not going to happen.

Tracking along the shore, that'd be close enough to have real negative problems for this system I'd have thought.

The trough in question is the one you can start seeing here (18Z GFS 84 hours) that is eroding the ridge over the Northeast..you can see the 996MB line way up in Canada and above that is the low pressure system heading east:

The second short wave is a bit flatter and oriented from north to south instead of SW to NE this run

18z

Please excuse my ignorance - when you say "door open" what do you mean? I mean, where do you see this heading if there is an opening? Thanks in advance.

Wow that Texas ridge just doesn't want to budge does it? GFS is holding it strong on this run also :eek:

It's a slight difference right now...approaching Day 5 is when the divergence (if any) usually begins

The second trough is definitely "flatter" in the 18z run

Still ooks like its going to run along Cuba which would be a good track for Florida, and probably better for Cuba as well rather then a close track just to the south where it could in theory explode.

I agree, it looks almost identical to the last run as far as track goes.

96 hours 18Z GFS, going over alot of Cuba. Trough in question that may turn it is the one caused by the low up in SE Canada (all of the lines at the top of the image above).

Looks like a pretty similar track to Fay, just maybe a touch more land then Fay had to deal with.

Gatorcane, its right on the coast at 108hrs, could not be a closer call!
