Disclaimer: 50% of the time I have no clue of what I am talking about. Chances are I am taking a less than educated guess that sounds good because 10 years ago I stole Mike Watkins book 'The Hurricane and its Impact'. For official information please direct yourself to the NHC and their cadre of weather geniuses.

I think it will miss but if it gets any closer the outer banks and se va will have a major coastal flood.

One word my friend, trends. Anyone who has followed the tropics for years knows the trend is your friend, or enemy in certain cases. These continued undulations in model output are troubling.

yes stormlover, thankfully. But I was taught long ago about models to watch trends. Not the exact location any landmass is hit by a storm, but the trends are what you watch. When all the models, ( or the major ones) start trending in one direction..They are on to something. Now whether the euro trends west at all is to be determined in a couple hours. And who knows, even if it does trend west a little, tomorrow they could all trend back east again considering the fluid dynamics in play from Ida and the cut off.

Nam is so bad, nobody uses the nam for hurricane anymore, gfs could be right but gfs has done horrible with this....Cmc,nam,navy, they have all done horrendous

Of course every model has been horrendous this season, thus why I have little confidence in the projected long range track of Joaquin at this point.

It's already flooding here (Jersey shore) from the first storm.

NAM is decent but you have to use the 4km version (goes out to 68 hours). The 32km/16km are worse than CMC.

Re: ATL: JOAQUIN - Models
No gfs and euro have done ok, euro has done pretty good once the system has formed and struggled on weak systems but euro has been dang good the last 2-3 weeks

Re: ATL: JOAQUIN - Models
The spilt flow in the situation is so thin and close..any minor shift makes it go way right or way left....this case is one to be studied later on..literally which flow separated by a thin line does it go with? Just my opinion
