ATL: HERMINE - Post-Tropical - Discussion

[TropicalSailor]

I think most people are getting bored and frustrated with this thing, I know I am. As my Dad use to say, s#it or get off the pot

I reached that point a week ago.

Are you kidding me? Recon leaves early then the Satellite goes out since 1030z...great...don't need another Opal situation...not forecasting that of course

[wxman57]

I had been saying that development chances won't really increase until this afternoon/evening. Models are in even better agreement today on a NE turn tonight/Wed AM with landfall about midway between Apalachicola & Tampa.

I think we are seeing the worst of the western dry air now.

Here is a GFS Skew-T at a point in it at 06Z

Here is the same point 24 hours out

Oh geez, I didn't realize sat pics aren't updating.

Cool. WX, what changes do you see happening later today that would trigger more development? (just learning, hence the question), Thanks

*Length of Outage:* TBD

*Details/Specifics of Change: *GOES Controller reports: GOES-13
(GOES-East) Star tracker 3 has failed. The schedule has been paused, so
there are no GOES-13 images available. Engineers have been contacted.

Great Scott!!

I hope Star Tracker is something on the ground, otherwise not sure why they would call engineers.

I see some of the models shifting more west across Florida than the original plot for land fall around the Cedar Key area. Any reasoning in this or will the models go back a forth until it gets closer? Thanks

GOES-East back up work now

[Aric Dunn]

interesting.. finally looks to be deepening..

[NDG]

Convection continues to expand this morning but the LL continues to be close to the 24th latitude and 87W.

NHC says it could start strengthening later today so we'll see.
