ATL: Ex COLIN - Models
Moderator: S2k Moderators
CMC maybe a left outlier but thus far it seems to me like its doing better then some of the other models like the Hurricane Models/UKMO...at the moment of course.

Thank you cycloneye for regularly posting the BAM models. I like to compare previous vs. current data/models/etc. to keep up with what the TRENDS are doing.
Here are some calculations on the BAMS expected center locations; yesterday vs. today.
24hrs ago: center crosses 14N @ 45.2W
Current: center crosses 14N @ 48.5W
24hrs ago: center crosses 15N @ 48.1W
Current: center crosses 15N @ 49.8W
24hrs ago: center crosses 16N @ 50.4W
Current: center crosses 16N @ 53.5W
The longer our storm keeps outrunning the models westwards, of course the greater chance an East Coast hit. This is starting to get fascinating eh?

Slide on over to the 144hr mark and take a peek at SFL.

If the CMC was a prophet, the south florida area would be a wasteland. I can't count the number of times it has launched a cat4-5 into south florida in the past 5+ years. Makes me wonder if them canadians have something against us? lol

I think they're a little miffed that the value of their winter condos has decreased markedly over the past few years! They have lost a ton of money for their owners, no one want to buy them, so let's have a major hurricane blow them all down! Insurance is great, eh?!

Oh my mistake, it's slamming it into Central America inexplicably like the last area.
Boy is THAT a stark difference between that and an imminent hurricane

Please post the link to that run.
