Re: ATL: DORIAN - Models
Makes no sense all those U.K.met models going the opposite again.

Same thing people were saying when ukmet had it missing PR, but it verified. It's hard to point out exactly what one model sees that another doesn't.

The UKMET ensembles look a lot different than the European ensembles.

0z NAM is a tick faster and further northwest of the 18z run.

0z NAM has much more of a trough in the 250mb flow over the U.S swooping down then it did during the 18z run.

Re: ATL: DORIAN - Models
This was posted in the Discussion thread. A great explanation of some of the models and the setup.

UKMET Ensembles were horrible with Barry. Most were pointed at TX for several runs and we know how that turned out.

Re: ATL: DORIAN - Models
No one is out of the woods yet. They don't call it the 'windshield wiper' effect for nothing. If the next few model runs keep it OTS they might be onto something but we have to wait and see.

0z NAM stalls Dorian on the Palm Beach/Martin County coast and the eyewall is just pounding the costal areas

Re: ATL: DORIAN - Models
0z NAM have a very short wsw movement before turning wnw at hour 60. I have to imagine that the much deeper 250mb trough is keeping the 250mb high in the Gulf at bay, allowing the storm to move more northward.

Yeah, that's a decent NW shift from the past few runs which had it meandering in the Bahamas. Although, now it may be meandering just off the Florida coast.

Re: ATL: DORIAN - Models
Two reasons to keep an eye on the models tonight...the UKMET ensembles and the 18z Euro which stalled out the storm completely in GB.

Re: ATL: DORIAN - Models
Subtle shifts in the atmosphere can cause a track to swing 50 miles one way or the other. Looking at the peninsula and the way its shaped and the angle of approach we just don't have the tools or the science to narrow it down 4-5 days away. Levi Cowan has an excellent video on the factors influencing steering and how subtle changes resulted in models clustering on the west coast yesterday but resulted more east coast from today's model runs.
