Re: ATL: ISAAC - Models
That's a big shift in intensity by the HWRF form the last run.
Edit: Actually i just realized the hwrf has it with a low pressure than average for it's intensity.

New HWRF run is (as of 42 hrs) even stronger than 06z run, but more north

A reminder that the HWRF has a horrible track record for those who are not familiar with it.

its the intensity I am worried about. I mean, don't take models intensity forecasts with any more than a grain of salt.. but just seeing that prediction with your own two eyes, little scary

The HWRF may be horrible but still the same that everyone on the West coast should prepare for the worst as it will most certainly be close enough.

I would say the the HWRF has performed better than the Euro with this storm so far...
This was the solution 3 days ago... Seems to have nailed it so far

Re: ATL: ISAAC - Models
Statistically, the HWRF model is one of the worst performing models. However, we can discuss this further when things slow down.
