Re: ATL: NICHOLAS - Models
The GFS was the eastern most model for several days, but is now coming into agreement with the other models. If the GFS holds with a more western solution for 18Z and 0Z runs Nicholas will almost certainly make landfall somewhere along the Texas coast and not Cameron Parish like the GFS has been suggesting.

If you discount the operational GFS most of the models have been pretty consistent on a track towards the middle or upper Texas coast for the past couple of days now.And now it seems the operational is finally agreeing.

The HMON is not an unreasonable run.

Re: ATL: NICHOLAS - Models
12z HWRF the strongest run so far on Nicholas, close to Cat 2 on this run.

Re: ATL: NICHOLAS - Models
Leave it to the HWRF to make a Hurricane out of this. Could be right, but even if it is I'm done giving it credit for anything more than a somewhat educated guess.

Re: ATL: NICHOLAS - Models
This run is too strong with Nicholas in the short term (50-55 kt by 5pm and 1000mb later tonight), making its 973mb landfall intensity super unlikely. However, it does show shear starting to kick in by 06z Tuesday; the simulated IR structure is very squashed on the west side and convection is blown off the LLC by the time it makes landfall later in the day.

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.

Re: ATL: NICHOLAS - Models
The Euro is about to throw a wrench in the current forecast. At 48 hours, it has it located in South/South Central Texas, east of Cotulla.

At 60 hours, it's basically sitting on top of San Antonio.

Euro has a west bias I am still thinking it will be close to what the NHC has right now don't think it will be as far west as the euro thinks.

15 to 20 inches for Houston metro seems pretty reasonable if it comes in to the west of the city.

And of course the 12z Euro had to throw in a monkey wrench to the consensus that we had a couple of hours ago, lol.

Re: ATL: NICHOLAS - Models
Getting some serious Harvey vibes here. Even if the bullseye is off, the fact that the EURO is sniffing out 60+ inches of rain is very sobering to me.

I’m not a fan of the 12z Euro run.
