Yeah you can easily subtract 15-20mb from the landfall pressure value. This will likely be a Cat.4 landfall in reality.

More realistic than the previous run even if it initialised poorly. The euro is on something...

It’s the GFS so I wouldn’t start evacuating just yet in
Galveston.

Last night the EURO was king when it said the same
thing today it’s not because it doesn’t agree ....why is that?

It seemed like the euro was caving in line with the other models yesterday. It has been terrible with intensity all season.

... because there's legit reasons why the 12z ECMWF doesn't make sense?

Somebody posted a graphic earlier showing it tends to have the worst skill with intensity in general.

There isn't a global model or specialty model that actually excels at tropical cyclone intensity. It truly is a unknown frontier.

HMON seems to lose the center from hour 21 to 24. It pops a center to the SW randomly. :D

I've watched the HMON do that sort of quirky jumping around for several runs, but I'm sure there's a good explanation as to why. It definitely looks odd visually though.

I have no idea what to make of the HMON so far but I’m inclined to discount it. Aside from the poor initialization (4mb too weak, 60mi too far north), it seems to show 2 competing vortices through hour 36. I think that’s reasonable, but it keeps pegging the center at some weird peripheral vort to the north instead of the actual center of circulation it depicts.
