I don't think this has been posted yet. If it has, I'm too lazy to look back at the other pages.

remember wilma's path? an charlie too?still a possible threat!


Wilma...Late October...totally different season...westerlies turned it. The fall is a very fluid season and subtropical highs are transient and the models have a hard time with them because of the rapid movement of shortwaves and longwave trofs.

Charlie-BIG trof in the Gulf.

I don't see a big trof and it's not fall.

Thankfully forecasting does not rely on "feelings" as feelings have no brains

Just South of the western tip of Cuba.....A very precarious position for late August.

notice that none of the models dissipate it like they've done with previous waves/storms? That's a change!
I'm actually surprised that the GDFL is taking it so far North.

A VERY precarious location for a storm this time of the year in relation to the gulf. We all need to keep an eye on this one (Ernesto).

If it keeps going this fast it might hit the tutt. If so then its going to have alot of trouble. Lets see if that upper level Anticyclone holds over it...And how fast this tutt backs. One degree farther west then this thing could just as easly be toasted. I hope not but just stating that it could do anything right now.

Roughly the same track as the 18Z BAMD/BAMM with a little more turn back towards the WNW at the end and its a little faster.
