Breaking News
Is the first time that the ECMWF joins GFS on developing a Caribbean system. Let's see in future runs how this model and GFS develop it. This is on day ten.

Re: Global Model Runs Discussion
The GFS has been developing a Caribbean storm in the 12-16 day range for the past 3-4 weeks on every run. It's always in that 12-16 day range.

Yes it is and that is the most dangerous area for development in our basin this time of year and the MJO will be at its peak around that time as well. Interesting to see if it continues.

Yes,is only the first run doing this. Let's see if is only a one run thing or is going to continue to show it. And if it continues,then we will have to pay very close attention to that area after mid month.

Re: Global Model Runs Discussion
The MJO wet pulse that is about to arrive in the Caribbean and GOM is one of the strongest I have seen and this is why first GFS has been showing Caribbean development for a good while as wxman57 said and what the ECMWF is starting to show.

I think it was the GFS that had Irene going to Texas 15 days out (before it even formed), but if a trend develops over a few runs with any computer model, it is worth considering.

And the 18Z GFS has nothing significant in the Caribbean throughout the 2 week period. How's that for being reliable? At this rate, it will keep showing something at days 12-16 and we'll be opening Christmas presents while discussing what's coming in 12 to 16 days. Come on already! Let's get it going or shut it down until June.

Some consolation Mark is that is the 18z not 00z or 12z. I would wait for the 00z run to see if it continues as 18z without any development, or it goes ahead and develops something in the medium range like what Euro had at 12z.

Re: Global Model Runs Discussion
Well,I wonder why GFS has abandoned what it had for many many runs of a Caribbean hurricane.

Re: Global Model Runs Discussion
The 0Z Euro had a weak small low developing in the SW Caribbean. It's looks elongated, but it's time to grasp at straws.

...wait, Belize if or Not, there may be more to come! Okay sorry, worse pun..... New 12Z starting at 144 hours is now depicting a 1004 low just east of Belize. Gulf of Honduras area is certainly a typical climo hot spot for activity. 180 hr still status quo, but showing larger and deeper consolodation down there.

In fact , by the end of the newest 12Z cycle, a 1003 low parked over the S. Central Gulf has begun to spread some desperately needed rain over you guys in parched Texas and furthermore your right about the "Singing Fat Lady". She appears to have gotten a frog caught in her throat!
