G-IV is in the air now..

From the HRD: The G-IV is scheduled to fly a synoptic surveillance mission very early this morning, with a takeoff time of 0530 UTC (1:30AM EDT) from MacDill AFB. Recovery will be at MacDill as well. The G-IV crew will be sampling the subtropical ridge north of Isaac as well as circumnavigating the storm. Here’s their flight track.

Should have the data for 12Z tomorrow..

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'.

Looks like the 00Z GFS and 00Z EURO are in agreement except for intensity.

00Z EURO 96 HRS (979.6 mb CAT 2)

00Z GFS 96 HRS (991.9 mb TS/CAT 1)

The EURO still looks weirdo with what it does after landfall....but, we now have some EXCELLENT agreement.

:uarrow: don't pay attention to the strength, as hard as it is not to. Probably the most unpredictable thing to figure out when it comes to these things.

Well, now GFS and EURO are close again to being in a near consensus about the vicinity of final landfall in Florida Panhandle from Pensacola to PCB within 96 hours. EURO shifted eastward this run. Let's see if this consensus will hold firm, but we all know there will likely be a few more subtle changes with the runs as time progresses.

You're right. Isaac could make landfall as a Tropical Storm or have RI and make landfall as a Cat 3 or higher. Lots of warm water for Isaac once he enters the Gulf.

The beginning of the 18z GFS is the best for low land interaction and a perfect setup position for re-strengthening before the GOM. Seems too fast however. The latest GFS and Euro are nothing special. The Canadian is really crazy this last run, taking it really far west (usually it was well to the east) and bombing it.

If majority of models shown below pan out, Isaac will have cleared Cuba in less than 12 hours
