Re: Hurricane DEAN Global Models=12z GFS is rolling in

I really don't believe this run : this WNW turn to the North of Jam and then again Wtowards Cancun seems quite bullsh*t to me. Waiting for the others. When goes out GFDL ?

Concentric eyewalls would suggest so.

I don't buy that either. Seems strange, and I doubt it will happen..especially if the storm is stronger than shown by the GFS.

I bet the NHC is not.

I guess those trochoid wobbles were telling us something. Right out of the gates Dean has just recorded 115KT flight level winds and 963 pressure. I believe that is something like 115mph surface winds category 3 intensity.

I think we are looking at category 5 further west for sure...

Re: Recon obs=Vortex Data Message=963 mbs,115 kts NE Quad

#6108 Postby WxGuy1 » Fri Aug 17, 2007 11:26 am

Just to be clear, you should probably note, in the thread title, that the 115kts in the NE Quad is from flight level observations. I'd think that some would be confused and think that the Vortex message noted 115kts at the sfc, which it did not (from my understanding). Thanks!

Recon obs=Vortex Data Message=963mb, 115kts flight-level NE Quad

ERC would raise the pressure at least 10-15 mb correct?

Not much strengthening today I would assume??

Yep, that translates to 103 kt winds at the surface. It is Category 3 right now for sure...I would hold it at 100 kt for the moment due to its pressure and shape though.

I also bet if this run had shifted north into middle or upper Texas coast most of you "ignoring" because of it's Mexico hit would be jumping on the GFS bandwagon. It is what it is.
I would not be surprised if the other models started trending back south.
By the way I'm not a gambler.

Just the opposite. Once it completes it ERC, this thing will deepen like crazy.

I've called it disorganized and I don't count as anything but an ignorant observer. :) It is pretty ragged though, look at the previous descriptions from the NHC. I think what it means if that Dean were more organized we'd be looking at a monster.

Oh no, I know. I am just thinking it will delay any RIC until tommorrow. Would you agree?

Temporarily it should not strengthen but once it's done, probably in time for tonight, should strengthen a lot.

I'm ignoring it because it shows a broad low pressure area in 30 hours....recon just found 115kts at flight level and this is likely a cat 3. The GFS is not handling this well right now. It also shows it tracking further north and then all of the sudden heading due west as a very weak storm.
