ATL: CHRIS - Post-Tropical

[TheAustinMan]

Am a little surprised at the attention this system has been getting, but nonetheless an INVEST classification has been designated on the non-tropical low southwest of Bermuda. Located in a region of high ambient pressures, the pressure given for this system is a rather high 1021 millibars.

Just needs to develop some convection if it wants to develop into TD 3.

[Kazmit]

Interesting how the chances have gone down before being given an invest number.

[AnnularCane]

Odd, I wasn't expecting this ever since the percentages started going down. I wonder if they'll go back up?

[cycloneye]

A weak low pressure system located a few hundred miles west-
southwest of Bermuda is producing disorganized shower and
thunderstorm activity. Environmental conditions appear conducive
for some development through the end of the week while the system
moves west-northwestward and then northward at about 10 mph off the
coast of North Carolina. The low is forecast to interact with a
frontal system on Sunday, which should limit any additional
development.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent.

Upper air conditions seem favorable but this isn't producing any convection--is it too dry, or too stable?

Dry air. RH is below 50%.

[CyclonicFury]

Up to 40/50%

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 PM EDT Thu Jul 5 2018

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Beryl, located over the central tropical Atlantic Ocean
more than a thousand miles east-southeast of the Lesser Antilles.

A well-defined low pressure system located about midway between
the southeastern United States and Bermuda continues to produce
disorganized showers and thunderstorms. However, environmental
conditions appear conducive for some development through the end
of the week while the system moves slowly west-northwestward and
then northward off the coast of North Carolina. The low could
interact with a frontal system on Sunday, which would limit any
additional development.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...40 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...50 percent.

Public Advisories on Tropical Storm Beryl are issued under WMO
header WTNT32 KNHC and under AWIPS header MIATCPAT2.

Notice they changed it to "could interact with a frontal system on Sunday", reflecting the the GFS, UKMET, CMC, and EURO depicting the trough leaving 96L behind for a few days.

[Weather150]

00z GFS stronger with 96L.

[cycloneye]

Siker,you were spot on.

[Siker]

00z UKMET, showing it lingering off the East Coast before getting kicked out by the next trough (and greatly intensifying at that point):

06Z GFS intensifies this as a major 965 mb TC just off the U.S. Mid-Atlantic coast in 132 hours.

[cycloneye]

00z Euro is like UKMET.

[shiny-pebble]

Chris already? GFS tends to be the doomsday model. They have a high-end Cat 2/low-end Cat 3. Euro has a minimal tropical storm going out to sea. GFS has it riding up the coast of the Carolinas while intensifying and almost stationary as a Cat 2.

Convection popping this morning. Could be a sneaky "homegrown" storm that passes very close to the east coast. Looking increasingly likely that 96L becomes Chris in a few days.

[shiny-pebble]

Now up to 70 for 48 hours and 80 for 5 days

Showers and thunderstorms are increasing in association with a
well-defined low pressure system located a few hundred miles
southeast of the North Carolina coast. Environmental conditions
are expected to be conducive for additional development of this
system, and a tropical depression is likely to form over the next
couple of days while the system moves slowly northwestward and
stalls or meanders near the coast of North Carolina over the
weekend. Interests along the North Carolina and South Carolina
coasts should monitor the progress of this system during the next
several days.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...80 percent.

[TheStormExpert]

If the GFS is correct this could very well be our next hurricane. If that happens that would put CSU and TCR at risk with their number of four hurricanes this season likely being too low.

[northjaxpro]

This system just could really intensify quickly. We may be seeing a potential very significant TC in the making. It will be meandering in an area around the Gulf Stream for the next few days in a conducive upper level envriroment. We could be looking at interesting times for those along the Mid Atlantic coast, especially the next 72-94 hours.
