strong mid level shear is far more destructive than upper level shear. This needs to change soon or else we will have Chris 2, which would be quite a good thing

I don't know if they are writing it off exactly. It's doing what it is forecast to do according to the NHC track markers. Looks to me like it's slowing down and the shear is moving west. Maybe the shear will rip it apart ...only time will tell.

Looks like they are going to upgrade...models were initialized at 35 knots and the header was changed to Ernesto....

It means it will *probably* be Ernesto at 5... usually that tells for sure but with some uncertainty here I say probably.

I don't think anyone is writing it off, at least I'm not. But I do think things don't look good right now for TD5.

See no reason to upgrade as TD #5 is in grave danger of going poof like Chris with that shear close by...

To irritate you...because weaker systems at lower latitudes move more to the west and have a tendency to avoid south Florida.

Oh, I am not talking about you!!! Sorry, I am just saying that many people change there opinions WAY to quickly. Sure, it dosn't look the best but, you can see, like you said, that shear is starting to weaken and back west. So, I think of it this way, IF** this system looks like this now and it is TRUELY a TS then WOW.

Dislocated LLC plainly evident.


All depends on how much refire happens tonight. I say, strong refire and it will outlast the dislocation.

Ok, maybe I should only listen to the NHC. Pro-mets on here are saying different things, models flopping all over the place, it's going to dissapate, it's strengthening. Needless to say I'm quite fustrated.

Mid-level shear http://cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/tropic/real- ... idshr.html Doesn't look like much but mid shear is far more destructive than upper shear.
