This is the 8:05 discussion that Formosa from TPC did and frankly it is a short one compared with Blake and Berg discussions that are very long and detailed but not a word from Formosa about that wave that almost all models are jumping to but I think that by the 2:05 one they must introduced it.

Is it because in the short term conditions are unfavorable??? According to Dr. Steve Lyons they are. :roll: :roll: Guess we shall see :wink:

They'll mention it soon enough ...

Since it is just about to emerge off the coast ... generally, there will likely be a decrease in convection, probably followed by another flare-up ...

That wave just looks really good ...

Looks like GFS smells fish with this one-if this is the same wave... http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/nwprod ... el_m.shtml shows it going north of the Islands-could be overdoing the troughiness that far out though so wait and see... Made an attempt at plotting them below... Image

You can always count on a trough ending up off the east coast past day 10 or so. I'd back that up well west of where it's putting it now

Concerning GFS, I'm inclined to agree ATTM. Here in the Mid-Atlantic, we are champs of busted +D3 ZFPs b/c some forecasters are still hugging the GFS. I don't get it as it has busted on virtually every trof through the Mid-Atlantic for 7, count em' 7 weeks. If one thinks the trof is more to the west and the Ridge is back (as somewhat depicted on the 12Z Ukie 120), the TC just barely makes it SW of the 20|60 benchmark. Way too close now but consensus is developing.
