HOLD ON THAR BOBBALOU!!!!!

#1 Postby Steve H. » Sun Aug 31, 2003 2:50 pm

Somebody help keep my sanity.. What were the 12Z tropical models looking like. The 18Z run looks like a significant change to the SW...ALso, the intensity gives one the impression that it gets into a tropphy area then begins to intensify again. Is this a re-building ridge?? :o This model run has the highest latitude at 27>5N, near 70W at 120 hours...the others are further south. Not getting excited here, but this must be a change.

Are any of those SHIPS? :? If they are then I immediately discount SHIPS since it weakens storms waaaaaaaaaaay too fast IMHO.

The Ecmwf re-builds the ridge in the med. range. Very uncertain here. very.

This would keep Fabian generally on a westward track.

Could we see a Andrew like left hand turn, but further north?! Certainly hope not, but Fabian has certainly tracked on southern periphery of the track envelope. Potential east coast threat? We shall see.

There has been a potential east coast threat with Fabian right along.

If and when the high rebuilds itself, this system will have trouble moving northward.
