Easy big fella ... E-A-S-Y ... the storm was supposed to be doing this per the modeling and forecasts. I wouldn't be boarding up those windows on the Texas Gulf Coast just yet. :wink:


Exactly what I was going to say. The majority of the models had Ingrid moving NNE as the upper low to its NW shifts a bit more to its west tonight. So it's behaving just as forecast. Once the upper low weakens/dissipates and the ridge rebuilds to its north it will take a westerly turn, probably moving inland just north of Tampico. I see the NHC finally came around and is forecasting Ingrid to become a hurricane. Question is, how strong? Cat 2 or 3?


Wow you really think this could make a run at major status? That would be an absolute disaster.

That also would be something huge for this season IMO because Hurricane Alex from 2010 only managed to become a strong Cat.2 with a similar track.

well, there's nothing to indicate major status, but it is strengthening faster than any model predicted. Its position with respect to the upper low is quite favorable for strengthening.

I'm not surprised Ingrid is strengthening fast. She's stationary over water.

An excerpt from discussion.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT THE EXACT TIMING AND
LOCATION OF LANDFALL IN THE HURRICANE WATCH AREA REMAINS QUITE
UNCERTAIN AT THIS POINT GIVEN THE LARGE SPREAD IN THE GUIDANCE.

Good timing right? :P


Wow, that's excellent! This is a perfect case to add if you have the time. I would love to read it when you're done. Best of luck!

ozonepete wrote:It's likely due to the very warm water and the shape of the BOC. The wind field tends to get forced into a circular pattern due to the curvature of the land with its blocking mountains and of course a circular shape is more symmetrical and thus allows for the vorticity to tighten up.


This is what allowed Nate in 2011 to become a hurricane briefly despite dry air and shear, correct?


I couldn't say anything without looking back at the data. Unfortunately I'm overloaded with work right now and have a lot of students to grade for tropical meteorology so I don't think I can get to it. Maybe SouthTexasStorms is looking at this for his paper? If not, maybe you should check it out for your paper, STS?

You can definitely tell that conditions are still not 100% perfect. SW/S shear?

You have a chance at that since the NHC has said they have a low confidence in the track right now. Let's hope so since you guys could really use the rain up there. :)

well we all can watch Ingrid for days if the 0Z GFS is correct.....Ingrid gets toward the coast then gets pushed down back into the extreme BOC to start over.... :lol:
