Re: ATL: INVEST 98L - Models
Wow, less than a day of unenthusiastic model runs and people are already cancelling this storm. There are still many days ahead.

I guess people are buying into the Euro’s surprising lack of anything this run. To be fair, I was quite surprised it went back to being as unenthusiastic as the GFS.

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.

i wasn't. this is a very complex developmental setup for the models to handle, and in a year that models are missing everything anyways, this was bound to happen at some point.

If we were making definitive decisions off single model runs we'd have evacuated everyone from Texas to Maine with this by now; next run will probably be drastically different until there's something solid to latch onto instead of competing ITCZ swirls

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.

Re: ATL: INVEST 98L - Models
I know models have backed off this run, but I’d encourage people to look at satellite imagery and notice the continued organization of 98L through the day. The models are likely having fits consolidating so much spin into one tropical cyclone.
There is a reason the chances for development went up at 2pm and it has nothing to do with models and everything to do with a favorable environment and continued organization. How soon we forget the GFS and Euro missed a HUGE hurricane in the Gulf as little as one day out from the event this year.

Re: ATL: INVEST 98L - Models
One thing for sure, that the weaker it stays over the next 2-3 days while it organizes into one big dominant low pressure area the bigger the threat is for the SE US and GOM giving time for the Bermuda ridge to really take its position and keep pushing it westward.
We could very well see two systems affect the southern US, 97L & 98L almost at the same time, that would be historic.
