Yes it does matter if you open the link to the wrong storm. If you open the lee link, it shows katia making US landfall. If you open the katia link, it shows it missing the US.ROCK wrote:no its not...this is the 0z HWRF.....doesnt matter if that was Lee or not.....its a very close.....

Let me be the one to order up a big plate of crow here in case im wrong.... The GFS is East... the Euro is east of the CONUS... Katia is going to cause some high surf... but stay a fish. Putting stock in models that have not performed in 5+ years is kinda pushing it... ie the UKMET, NOGAPS, and CMC...

Disclaimer: 50% of the time I have no clue of what I am talking about. Chances are I am taking a less than educated guess that sounds good because 10 years ago I stole Mike Watkins book 'The Hurricane and its Impact'. For official information please direct yourself to the NHC and their cadre of weather geniuses.

boo. GFS and Euro take all the fun out of it. They just have to be so stubbornly right and refuse to throw us some red meat just for fun once in a awhile. Cmc and ukmet are fun. Kinda miss the good old days of uncertainty.

Re: ATL: KATIA - Hurricane - Discussion
hope this isn't TOO far off topic...
When we were preparing for Irene, the Weather Channel would highlight the day they expected landfall on their 7 day outlook graphic that ran during "local on the 8s", with a caption at the bottom, white on red background "watching the tropics on (whatever day of the week it was). For more information, go to http://www.weather.com" . Now that Katia is the storm to watch, I've noticed them doing the same thing again, highlighting and mentioning this coming Thursday as the "target" day to watch the tropics.
Given what the models all seem to agree is going to happen with this storm, why would the Weather Channel EVER want to hype a non-existent situation, given what the folks here and others have just gone through? "There oughta be a law" doesn't cover it.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled topic.

Ratings. People really need to stop watching that 'channel'. They stopped focusing on weather over two years ago.

Re: ATL: KATIA - Advisories
HURRICANE KATIA DISCUSSION NUMBER 29
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL122011
500 AM AST MON SEP 05 2011
THE INNER CORE CONVECTIVE STRUCTURE OF KATIA APPEARS TO HAVE GONE
THROUGH ANOTHER ROUND OF CHANGES...WITH A NET DECREASE IN
ORGANIZATION NOTED DURING THE PAST SEVERAL HOURS. AN EYE THAT WAS
EVIDENT EARLIER IS NO LONGER APPARENT...AND THERE ARE SIGNS THAT
DRY AIR HAS BEEN ROTATING AROUND THE CIRCULATION. UPPER-LEVEL
OUTFLOW IS GOOD TO EXCELLENT...WITH A FAVORABLE OUTFLOW SINK TO THE
NORTHEAST. A BLEND OF DVORAK T AND CI NUMBERS FROM TAFB AND SAB IS
LOWER THAN 6 HOURS AGO...SO THE CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATE IS
LOWERED TO 85 KT.
THE CENTER OF KATIA HAS BEEN WOBBLING. SMOOTHING OF RECENT FIXES
YIELDS AN INITIAL MOTION ESTIMATE OF 305/10. LARGE-SCALE MODELS
SHOW KATIA ROUNDING THE SOUTHWEST PERIPHERY OF A MID-LEVEL RIDGE
EAST OF BERMUDA...HEADING TOWARD A WEAKNESS OVER THE WESTERN
ATLANTIC. THIS SYNOPTIC PATTERN SHOULD STEER THE HURRICANE ON A
GENERAL NORTHWESTWARD COURSE WITH SOME DECELERATION OVER THE NEXT
FEW DAYS. LATER IN THE FORECAST PERIOD...FURTHER WESTWARD PROGRESS
IS LIKELY TO BE BLOCKED AS KATIA IS CAUGHT UP IN DEEP-LAYER
SOUTHERLY FLOW IN BETWEEN A LARGE CUT-OFF LOW OVER THE EASTERN
UNITED STATES AND THE RIDGE TO THE EAST. ONCE KATIA GAINS ENOUGH
LATITUDE...GLOBAL MODELS SHOW THE HURRICANE BECOMING EMBEDDED IN
STRONG MID-LATITUDE WESTERLY FLOW AND ACCELERATING NORTHEASTWARD.
THE SPREAD IN THE TRACK GUIDANCE HAS DECREASED SUBSTANTIALLY SINCE
YESTERDAY AND NOW FAVORS A RECURVATURE SCENARIO ROUGHLY ALONG
70W...WITH EVEN THE LEFT-LEANING UKMET/ECMWF MODELS NOW SHIFTING
SIGNIFICANTLY TO THE EAST. THE MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGE IS HOW
QUICKLY KATIA WILL TURN NORTHWARD AND THEN NORTHEASTWARD...WITH
MAJOR TIMING DIFFERENCES NOTED AMONGST THE VARIOUS MODELS. THE
OFFICIAL TRACK IS NEARLY IDENTICAL TO THE PREVIOUS ONE THROUGH 72
HOURS BUT IS ADJUSTED TO THE RIGHT AND IS MUCH FASTER TOWARD THE
END OF THE PERIOD BUT NOT AS FAST AS THE MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS.
ACCORDING TO THE GLOBAL MODELS...KATIA WILL BE MOVING THROUGH AN
ENVIRONMENT CHARACTERIZED BY ANTICYCLONIC UPPER-LEVEL FLOW AND WEAK
VERTICAL SHEAR THROUGH AT LEAST 72 HOURS. THE PRIMARY NEGATIVE
FACTORS THAT COULD INHIBIT THE INTENSIFICATION PROCESS DURING THIS
TIME ARE LOW MID-LEVEL RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES...A LOWERING OF THE
OCEANIC HEAT CONTENT ALONG THE FORECAST TRACK...AND THE POSSIBILITY
OF A MORE STABLE ENVIRONMENT DUE TO WARMING ALOFT. AFTER 96
HOURS...INCREASING SHEAR AND THE PROXIMITY OF KATIA TO A STRONG
GRADIENT OF SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES WILL LIKELY CONTRIBUTE TO
WEAKENING. THE OFFICIAL INTENSITY FORECAST HAS BEEN LOWERED EARLY
IN THE FORECAST PERIOD BASED ON CURRENT TRENDS AND ALSO AT THE END
OF THE PERIOD AS A RESULT OF ADJUSTMENTS TO THE TRACK FORECAST.
FORECAST POSITIONS AND MAX WINDS
INIT 05/0900Z 23.9N 62.0W 85 KT 100 MPH
12H 05/1800Z 25.0N 63.2W 90 KT 105 MPH
