Gulfstream data???

#1 Postby Rainband » Sat Sep 13, 2003 7:34 pm

there is still some uncertainty on the current strength
of the subtropical ridge to the north of Isabel...so it is prudent
to wait until all of the NOAA Gulfstream-IV dropsonde data make it
into the14/00z models. The official forecast track is just an
update of the previous track through 96 hours...with a little more
northward acceleration indicated at 120 hours as a course of least
regret. Note -- none of the NHC model guidance has Isabel over land
by 120 hours.


Does the 14/00z mean tommorow nights models????

Yes... 14/00Z is 8:00, this evening.

lol, well it means midnight GMT (or 00Z), which would be the start of Sep 14 at that zone, but still Sep 13 here in the EDT zone. So it'd be tonight.

If that makes any sense. :lol:
