That would be called "Sucking Cirrus"

I'll still be watching 00z because a true center hasn't stabilized yet.

GFS ensembles look about the same through 48 hours. A few members still show a landfall somewhere on the east coast of Florida.

It nearly kills it. Shear and dry air gonna suck the energy out of it. Local weatherman in Tampa said at 6pm he thinks it could get ripped apart as it closes in on the state. Euro called for this yesterday and CMC called for it earlier today.

Re: ATL: ISAIAS - Models
Well that was unexpected, definitely still a possibility. Also, it shows how the weaker the storm, the further west it will go.

Re: ATL: ISAIAS - Models
I don’t think that is very likely, at least not something that extreme — an extremely sheared and lopsided system plowing straight into FL with convection offset by over 100 miles. The quicker Isaias gets an inner core together, the quicker it can intensify in the short term and make it so that it’ll go further east instead of west.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

Re: ATL: ISAIAS - Models
The shear also has a lot to do with the turn. the ridging itself looks strong enough to keep it moving to probably middle of the state. But the shear , as you know, can force the center to try and stay with it. So if the shear is lighter throughout then a more left track is likely.

Re: ATL: ISAIAS - Models
18z HWRF parallel run has a much stronger storm staying offshore of Florida.

So, a little clarity here. There is no recon flight tonight? And, no Gulfstream mission planned either?
