Thanks, yup, it seems quite high for the moment. Could lst a moment as a major hurricane. I wonder which effect it could have on European weather.

I just took a look at the 12z ecmwf and it looks like it might have its starting position to far north....If I'm reading the map right.

"christy was last seen at MIA getting the first flight to alaska"

According to the FEMA officer I'm currently working with the state with the fewest claims they are holding paper on right now (and that paper represents 5% of the country according to him) is New Mexico.

12Z ECMWF

120 hours:

168 hours:

phases at 168 hours, bringing New England a heck of a storm. Florida landfall is hard to determine, but looks like Ft. Myers or just north.

But we should all remember that right now the models are chugging out their data before the sampling of the atmosphere has occurred. I want to wait for the models after they can digest the new atmospheric recon data! -Also, how is that front doing and the CONUS weather shaping up that is supposed to affect Wilma? I haven't seen any posts about the synoptics that are changing to justify any model changes. IS the front moving faster or slower? Is it stronger or weaker? Is it going to dig deep or not? How strong are the High's? etc.
Anyone have any of the details on the "other stuff" around Wilma?
-this is the stuff we should all want to hear about so we can learn more! :D


Excellent points.

I also do not like the trending of the models. With that said, I won't panic just yet. Let's all wait and see how the models digest the atmospheric sampling data from recon. Tonight's model runs should bear more confidence, since they will include the atmospheric data.

Personally I am hoping that Wilma goes through the straights of Florida. Still bad for the Keys, unfortunately.

The 12z GFDL has a Cat 4 off NC at the end of the run racing northward. :eek:

Looks like the models are closing in on a path through the Keys or just S.
Very common track for October storms.

I would think the water would be too cool to support a Cat 4 Hurricane off N.C.
