Yep,(If)it comes a hurricane then we are going to see $7-$10 gas prices also.

Could you provide links to models showing a trough digging down...Thanks!


Why are all the models forecasting a NE turn then?
models constantly change. I remember in Rita having them go from Mexico all the way to Louisiana. Usually these early scenarios are not the final result.

If you look at this water vapor loop, you can see that the Low in Canada is causing a deep NW flow down the East Coast which will open the door for a trough to come through - the trough is not visible yet but should be on its way in about 3-4 days.

How about the GFS? It shows a turn into the big bend of Florida:

Of course it is a weak low and nothing more :D

Boca....we know the models show a NE turn, they usually always do this early in the timeframe. I believe what rocky is asking is to show him the actual trough that is making these models produce that sharp turn.

Hey rockyman you could be right - I hope so, I would rather watch on the sidelines.....we'll have to see what happens but I have yet to see this blob work its way NW - seems like it wants to drift N....

I agree with Jeremy. The fact is that this system has continued to organize slowly this afternoon/evening and looks as healthy as it ever has at this point. It really bears close watching for those people especially in florida as flooding and isolated tornadoes could become a concern. I think Alberto(2 be) will provide copious amounts of rainfall to western Cuba(10-15") and possibly much of the Florida Peninsula especially the west coast and Keys(6-10"). Isolated tornadoes and water spouts will also be common...Stay Tuned as Saturday could be very interesting in the tropics...

Thanks, boca_chris, for tolerating a grizzled hurricane veteran :)

I'm just trying to encourage everyone to support their conclusions with data...we'll all learn and be better off when each of us takes the time to show and tell WHY we believe something is going to happen... :)

The GFDL run at 2335 UTC shows pretty much the same as the GFS. I'm not sure if that's the 00Z GFDL though.

Joe B. Posted a late night blurb stating that this storm will hit Florida Mon/Tue and that it will be picked up by another deep trof.
for whatever its worth...

00z NOGAPS at 108hr: (Huge Storm off NC coast)

Here is the new FSUMM5 that is rolling in right now, this is under the 54km Grid: (further west)

Why is NWS Miami only showing 50% pops for early next week here??? Ummmm i would change that to like 90-100%....look at that mess heading towards South Florida...should start seeing some burst of energy spin off starting late tomorrow and things will just get worse Sun and into Mon. - just my opinion looking at the sat presentations


Hey dont feel bad, we have even less at 30-40% here in Jax and we are near the forecast track! Im expecting this to change to a flood watch over the weekend into early next week. Some offices are conservative and just wanna make sure.

right now, its hard to tell where its going to hit, if it does. at its current track, it would completly miss Florida! and it doesnt look like and change in direction is going to happen soon, so i am adding in another slight possibility. it decides to slowly turn ENE or NE and skim the SE coast of FL. I DO NOT EXPECT THAT TO HAPPEN, but it is always a possibility.

The models seem to have a good consensus, but there are some (probably related to the UKMET) which have an interesting western divergence.
