IMO the Euro has the most believable output. The fewer the spawned storms out of the monsoon trough, the more legit it appears to me.. Although the previous Euro runs are still inconsistent.


The upcoming strong MJO signal in the WPAC is surely making the model guidance to scramble. :lol: Interestingly, the MJO pulse is forecasted to stall in the area throughout the last week of August, and I've been reading tweets from pro-mets saying that multiple recurving TC's help in trapping the MJO within Phase 6-7.

I'm leaning heavily towards an ECMWF type solution too. It's been consistently showing a believable two or three storms. The GFS has been trending that way too for the latest 12Z, 18Z, and 00Z runs.

The GFS runs reminded me alot about 1997...2 Category 5's roaming the basin and brings one of them below 900mb...Agrees with the other models on the P.I storm and brings it over Japan as a Cat 5...

Actually, this one is the ones the models were half-heartedly developing from the MCS that came off the Chinese coast. That modeled system is coming from the reverse-oriented monsoon trough that is currently in the early stages of setting up.

No idea what to make of that run - never seen something so ridiculous! I guess one or two dominant circulations will win out (with potential for some sort of interaction) and develop. Right now the models are urghhh

Quite an MJO moving over the area and possibly might stay and strengthen at the same time for a longer period of time. Time to bring out the Umbrellas...

Combine this with a ridicous Monsoon Trough setup near 20N...It's all hell...

The ridiculous model outputs even from the most reputable global models make the coming weeks more interesting, IMO. We just know that something's gonna form eventually, but everything else is up in the air...

My amateur eyes tells me that the area south of 20N and east of 130E is invest-worthy..
