Re: ATL: GORDON - Tropical Storm - Discussion
I would just like to take this time to point out yet again that just because a shear analysis shows shear in front of a tropical storm does not mean that the storm is about to rip through that area and fall apart. In fact, often times good outflow channels setting up can show up as shear in these analyses.
Let this be a lesson to those overly relying on those for prognostication.

Also Gordon has almost taken a perfect path.. First by Cuba, and now by Florida to allow land to help spin up its vorticity.

Re: ATL: GORDON - Tropical Storm - Discussion
The ultra super tiny cored storms are always fascinating, but even then I don't think I've ever seen a quicker development of central organization. Still looks marginal on satellite but radar tells the story

Colors of lost purpose on the canvas of irrelevance
Not a meteorologist, in fact more of an idiot than anything. You should probably check with the NHC or a local NWS office for official information.

The core is so tiny that they are not reporting winds anywhere near TS force. The core is like 5 miles wide and just offshore.

Re: ATL: GORDON - Tropical Storm - Discussion
Any thoughts on the path of Gordon and point of landfall or are we sticking with the latest NHC forecast?

There’s a ridge there to keep that from happening

Re: ATL: GORDON - Tropical Storm - Discussion
The amount of structural organization we've seen on Gordon just in the past three hours alone is incredible. Reminds me of Emily last year, although Emily moved inland before it could really take off.

My posts are my own personal opinion, defer to the National Hurricane Center (NHC) and other NOAA products for decision making during hurricane season.

How fast is it strengthening?
It built a core in less than 2 hours
That was cool to see, but I thought he had evidence of a giant pressure fall or wind increase.
