Yeah the fact that alot of models are suggesting at least a slight bend back does tend to lead to confidence that its on the table. I can understand the NHC sticking with a straight NW for now in the latter part of thier forecasts, but many more runs with that bend back and they'll slowly shift the end of the forecast back west.

Yeah I see that, will it finally bend it west like some the other reliable models? Ridging is building in over top and in tandem as it moves WNW.

yes it is.. that low is finally getting kicked out at 100 hours too.. geez still slower than the other models kicking it out... the run is another trend west so far.. about 100 to 120 miles SW of the 12z run

Troughs abit quicker but also not quite as sharp at the moment, looking at the pattern in the E.coast, it still doesn't look that condusive to a landfall...what it does look to me is it gets further west then most of us first thought.
94L should provide enough energy to form its on weak troughing once it heads further north and even if the lower levels get left behind, I think that is waht will sweep up Katia...

Future Lee will likely pump up the ridge somewhat between 60-70W, but the key is how long it takes to get eastwards, once the upper trough that has formed thanks to Lee moves NE around the main upper trough WAY north that should be enough to take it out to sea.
Howver there is enough uncertainty about timing and strength of both 94L and Katia at the moment for everyone to be very cautious now.
IF it takes too long to occur and Katia is further south it could well be a threat...

Unrelated to Katia, but jeez...that GFS scenario for future 'Lee'...it would be an Allison event all over again.

Re: ATL: KATIA - Models
This is intended for the models thread. It's the GFS 850vort/500mb heights and 200mb winds
Actually if you look at the loop it's not recurving. It's actually starting to move more westward and there is a ridge building on top of it.
