ATL: IRENE - Models
Moderator: S2k Moderators
I think the impact on the Northeast will depend on how much land Irene goes over. If it just skirts the Outer Banks, it will not lose as much intensity as if it went over Wilmington, NC and reemerged off Virginia or Maryland. So a slight deviation could make a huge impact on whether the Northeast just gets a bad rain storm or a full-fledged hurricane (or nothing at all if it goes out to sea).

I don't understand your question?
not a question. just saying it has time to possibly shift back.
Ok I see, and honestly based on the last few runs I think we are probably done with "trends" and more to minor flip-flopping but basic consistency.

Theres been a lot of talk about her apparent lack of forward motion over the past few hours. A lot of talk of how her slowing down a little might affect future model runs. Watched this board all winter long with the various blizzards we had up here in NY, and i can certainly say that its amazing how quickly things can change when a storm slows down ever so slightly. Misses everything that the models said it was going to link up with, and now you're facing a whole new set of variables. Just my observations of what some are saying thats all

Landfall? If there is a landfall.
I enjoy the posts from fox13weather meteorologist, but I still wish he would explain his opinions more, because otherwise he rubs people the wrong way.....

Yep, flying around right now. Looks like 4 dropsondes have been released so far. I posted the planned path in the recon discussion thread; looks like #4 was dropped right where planned (east of the northernmost Bahamas Islands).

good 18z model runs should get the data ingested in them again.

Re: ATL: IRENE - Models
Does anyone think the trend east has stopped and a west trend may bring the storm back to Myrtle Beach?
