Aric, are you sure you're not looking at the 850mb level??? I haven't seen anything above 134...Not that 134 is anything to laugh at.


yes I am purposely.. :) those can mix down you know .. :P

We're not panicking just yet but when you see models coming into agreement on synoptics/motions that bring a storm towards your area near days 4-6 with recon data to back it up, that's when you at least start to play attention.

Yea, I think if the GFS ends up going right again to South Carolina/North Carolina area, I think a Cat 3 or 4 is possible, but if the current GFS path is correct, probably a cat 1, MAYBE 2, but probably cat 1...Even if it don't go over the mountains of Cuba, the land itself will either disrupt it or if it's not mountainous, keep it from strengthening. I just don't think it would thread the needle perfectly and not interact with any land....Thus a much weaker storm seems likely.

I think what Aric is trying to say is the difference between 915mb and 924mb is redundant.

Yes, that is a fair point - pretty much all of these models have been showing the hard turn. The 18z GFS had it over the NW Bahamas, as did the 12z EURO. The 00z GFS has it over the Florida Straits (with disastrous consequences if verified).

Once again it all comes down to timing.


100% correct!! It will all have to play out perfectly with the timing with Irma getting caught by the weakness (trough) to hopefully spare all of Florida the scenario we just saw from the GFS.

After digesting this last GFS run, now watch the Euro come on in with Irma suddenly re curving out to sea well over 500 miles east of the S.E. Conus. That'll certainly drive many to drinking :lol: (highly doubtful however)

This is all starting to get a little crazy...What's the odds this thing could pull a Mitch and defy all the models and just dive South over Cuba???

HMON finishes this way between Andros Island and the Cuban Coast. Still VERY STRONG.

A secondary WSW motion through Cuba following a trip through the Florida straits? Plausible, though i'd guess a bit less likely than Irma scampering west through the straits and into the S.E. GOM.

NAVGEM jumps from 120 to 180 but appears to be hitting Georgia. By then circulation is interrupted so it may have at least brushed FL in those hours in between 120-180 you would think.

Again, I will ask it again. Is this even scientifically possible in the Atlantic? I don't think so. What is wrong with the models?
