its not weak though.
Yes, the center is, most of the winds are removed from the center in the deeper convection

Re: ATL: TS Dolly in Western Caribbean
Dolly just got a very deep blob over her center...black topped. If this goes just slightly north of forecast, CC, watch out!

Exactly, the NHC always goes smartly conservative when a storm first develops. I don't have much doubt that if it makes it off the Yucatan with good structure it won't become at least a hurricane.
and please remember intensity is very hard to predict.

have you looked at a satellite loop lately?

Aren't you equally tired of people making statements like this about the storm?

how will this happen?
its actually partly do to physics.

If the center finds it's way into the deep convection to the north the same forecast track extrapolated to the north would miss or just go over the tip of the Yucatan.

Re: ATL: TS Dolly in Western Caribbean
Folks, there are too many unfounded speculations. NHC should be conservative since this is the first advisory being issued. For the sake of everything, we may not even have a well-defined LLC tonight. Tropics are very unpredictable. I suspect as we see the system hold together over the next 24 hours, the landfall intensity forecast will undecidedly increase.

Detailed reasoning followed that one liner. I recognize that initial forecast busted, primarily because of uncertainties regarding the upper low's speed.
I agree with Hyperstorm.

Lol..No of course not..most of the energy is to the NE and like many storms that hit the yucatan, they relocate..just a fact, not saying it WILL happen, but this is a classic setup for it

Re: ATL: TS Dolly in Western Caribbean
It would have to relocate a good ways north or take one heck of a jog to the nw to miss the yucatan. I'm not looking for that to happen.

That's the 12z run. Those are the most recent.
