Yeah, imagine another Katrina-like storm...
Lets hope things remain out to sea this season and hopefully folks living in hurricane prone areas have taken advantage of these quite times and have gone out and gotten there supplies and created an emergency plan for there familys.Adrian
Yeah, a Category 5 fish-spinner would be a rare event in itself - there hasn't been one in the Atlantic in nearly 50 years...
Then again, think of all the poor creatures out in the mid-Atlantic if a Katrina-like storm decided to go for a

trip...

Its been a while since a cat5 has struck a major city and as we know katrina's intensity dropped of to cat3 before landfall.

According to that the pressure would be around 990mb, which is still most likely a high-end tropical storm. Still, I'm thinking dissipation.
i was just stating that i find the gfdl way off... and 990 is plenty.. for a hurricane we have had 996 hurricanes... recently the pressure wind ratio has come under more scrutiny since 04 05 season because multiple storms seemed to have very very low pressure but winds were'nt that high... and then there is the intesifying factor .. winds may go up then the pressures finally come down.. its no longer a world of pressure wind ratios.. and besides the gfdl says it would have 66kt ... so that a hurricane..
but again i think the gfdl it way off. a development is not likely

Extremely unlikely but IF this were to develop, it would have to be in the GFDL run position (off the NE tip of Yucatan) to do so. This is the most likely spot for future development. Unless the upper level winds relax though, there isn't a chance it will happen.

Lol.
The GFDL is forecasting a Category One/70MPH TS to impact the Carolinas and I cannot believe that this is a current GFDL run. If the Wind Shear graphic i'm seeing is correct I can assume 94L would be over the Loop Current somewhere about 96 to 110 hours from now, and shear is forecasted to be at or around 20 knots at that time.
I can see maybe development but THAT development is insane. What a screwy run.

A lot of convection has blown up recently to the east of this thing. I'm not giving up on it.

I know there is nothing
there. Which is why I said, to the
east of the actual INVEST.

Iam not buying the GFDL forcast with a hurricane up in the carolina's.The GFDL has a history of over doing things sometimes.

Because according to the lates WV loop, it seems to be moving westward (the convection) Alberto's convection remaind largley displaced to its east through most of its lifetime.
