The NHC forecast track goes out 6 days through Wednesday, and still has Gamma sitting in the BOC. Big question is.....what will the synoptic/steering pattern look like in days 7 through 9?

Dry air when it approaches the Gulf? The WCar looks very moist on Tropical Tidbits WV imagery.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

Outflow/banding in all quadrants with a nice and moist environment on water vapor imagery. There are also some new convective bursts closer to the CoC.

Dry air in the Gulf that will be entrained into the center Sunday/Monday. Look at the 400-700 mb relative humidity charts in the Precipitation/Moisture section of TT. More dry air flowing across the Gulf by next Thursday.

Buoy 42056 (located well north of 25L's estimated center) is reporting a sustained wind of 27 kt with a falling pressure of 1006.4 mb. The central pressure has likely fallen to 1003-1004 mb.

How much dry air Gamma gobbles up is really going to depend if it makes landfall as soon as the 12z GFS shows, or if it intensifies quicker and stays over water longer, because the latter scenario would lead to a compact moisture pocket. It’ll still succumb to dry air and shear eventually, but exactly when and how resistant it’ll be is all dependent on what Gamma does between now and tomorrow afternoon.

blob alert!
One little eddy has been pulled under the convection burst so will be watching to see if that centers the storm.
Moisture envelope of a system without shear can remain pretty stable from outflow precip remoistening the lower levels. Next big shear event occurs with the storm north of the dry Yucatan doesn't it? Does appear the models are factoring in the dry gulf environment and keeping the system shallow at this time.

Roxanne comes to mind... not for the potential Yucatan landfall but for the potential of meandering in the southern GOM for a while.

Looking very, very good for a system that's less than 12 hours old. I'm going to predict recon finds 45 kt/1002 mbar TS Gamma when it arrives. If it starts going more NNW and doesn't outrun its anticyclone, it could become a hurricane prior to landfall.

They are measuring 1002mb and they aren't even at the center yet

It is spectacular....it's huge compared to all the other GOM systems this season. Poor "beta fish"

Looks like good surf for a while though :D

41 kt FL + 35 kt SFMR. MSLP down to at least 1001 mb. Should be upgraded to TS Gamma shortly.

I would set it at 40 kt from the SFMR reading earlier and the pressure drop.

Wow, 999 mbar extrap already! Winds are probably only 35-40 kt but this is still a stronger storm than I anticipated, and if Dmax is conductive, Gamma’s pressure could drop even more during tonight’s flight.
