Sooooo...having gone out last night and having slept late this morning, lots of newness going on but no one really addressing what is happening with this storm, but rather with the name. I guess it must not be of much importance, going by the last two pages of this thread? (third thing I check on waking up...first the models, then the sats, then this site... )

I think we are looking at the models and making predictions again. I am reminded by the words in this mornings discussion, which is that they are just putting the track on or near the models becuase that is the best guidance for NOW. The longer term track looks different than the tropical models because the synoptic scale pattern will possibly make the track more west than the current model tracks.
Not saying that is a certainty, but it sure looks likely right now. In other words, a lot of attention needs to be paid over the next couple weeks.

Well, for me and some others, it's attention in the next couple of days (and beyond with whatever is lined up next), so I was curious for some hard stuff
But thanks!!! I figured it out with the science sites opinions- and we're ready anyway, as much as can be, no matter who is right or wrong. That's what we do here and then we play cards.

I have a bad feeling about Philippe, just the track for me is frightening. The chance of United States landfall is increasing, as models do predict the ridge to redevelop, when it happens is the key to hit turning more towards the west. Phillipe is going to be stronger if it takes a shot at the carolinas then Ophellia I believe, possibly major. I haven't been this worried since Katrina was about to hit New Orleans.

More accurate models, Gfdl included and Ukmet.

More accurate.... in the model performance for those models in their graphic, right?
Don't want folks thinking my maps are not accurate.
No, but in your model graphics, the best models are only the Gfdl, and to an extent the Ukmet (middle accurate model) I also included the Nogaps and gfs which are two other good models you didn't have.

I couldn't agree more. The only value I've seen in the other models is when they come into consensus with GFDL and UKMET, which by then, is useless. We'll be adding the models you pointed out very soon.

We're working on a tool where users can create a map of the models with only the models they pick from a list, or all models combined. So far, we only have the "single model" component done. This means we are currently testing an interactive map that lets the user select a single model from the models we currently offer.
If someone can point me to a reliable (read official) source for the raw model data for the missing models, we'll work quickly to add them. Help from a Pro-Met here would be greatly appreciated and graciously accepted!

I think yes. The high will build to its north, and cause it to move more west. I think it will more WNW when that happens. It's unclear when that will happen, but the entire East Coast should not let their guard down, then again TD 18 is going to get a lot of attention from everyone as it could hit the keys, maybe south florida and then potentially Texas, I think once it's in the gulf, it will rapidly intensify because the conditions will become very favorable, it won't be near as strong as Katrina was at her most powerful state, because the SST's are cooler than they were when Katrina was there.

If you look at the latest two loops ,you will see Philippe turning from NW to West/North west.
I hope it's temporary.
What do you think?
