Re: ATL: IRMA - Models
There is a continued SW shift with the newest data. Not sure, but I think maybe Cuba gets scrapped again?

Re: ATL: IRMA - Models
Trough looks to be starting to lift out at 60 hours. It keeps lifting and it's going to provide a perfect outflow channel for Irma to intensify.

Do you mean to compare a 500 mb map to an 850 mb map?

A trip through the mountains there would help.

Re: ATL: IRMA - Models
I'm not seeing all that much different between prior runs. Still escapes the Shredder.

[quote="RL3AO"]I don't see a big change. Height contours are maybe 20 miles further south near the base of the trough.
At the base, yes, but the 588DM isobar is not digging into the GOM like the last run, which means, less pull to the north.
The base of the trough is broader, the 591/594 DM ridge is surging a little further west, which might make it harder for the trough to dig Irma out in the short term.

Re: ATL: IRMA - Models
Unfortunately I don't see the GFS will recurve Irma east of FL so far on this run.

Still ugly on the intensity forecast. Lets see what the end of the run brings.
