that path would keep the storm away from mainland SFL, assuming it doesn't hook straight north and pull a Donna.

Not too many mountains on that side. Would weaken a bit but not shred it.

Just when I thought we were getting model consensus. That's a pretty big change from the Euro. Ensembles should be interesting.

That's an amazing projection that far out.
I've always thought the Euro is better! Not that *I* know anything!

Re: ATL: IRMA - Models
Gator,
It is well SW of the Operational GFS but just a hair south of the GEFS Ensembles at 120.
https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysi ... =0&ypos=73
GEPS aggregate comes up to the Big Bend more or less, so the 12Z GFS Ensembles (at least as presented on Tropical Tidbits) are closer to the EC and NHC than the GFS.

It ain't much, but I threw Levi a $25.00 donation for the good work he does and the model links he provides that some of the better sources don't have or present as quickly. I'm sure if a few more people gave a few dollars, it would help him out. If you're on this thread, you use his model outputs.

I'm not so sure about that, Euro shows little to no weakening over Cuba, part of that is likely due to Irma's large circulation and the relative flatlands of central Cuba.

The question is how is euro treating upper low and ridge pressure that sends it to gulf?
