Re: ATL: INVEST 96L - Discussion: 2 PM TWO=100%
This may be the most impressive looking “invest” in history. Upgrade it already. It looks like a mid-TS.

I’m hoping this means we’re getting TD29 or TS Eta at 5.

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.

Note that the TVCN indicates a significant slowdown just before landfall. 96L may well loop along the coast of Central America and not move far inland at all.
The current rate of intensification means that 96L (Eta) is less likely to move well inland before stalling, looping offshore, and eventually heading northward.
I’m already thinking this could well become a high-end Cat-4 or even low-end Cat-5 before hitting Cabo Gracias a Dios, stalling, and then entering the GoH.*
*Gulf of Honduras
(At any rate, this won’t weaken much, if at all, due to the brevity of its landfall on the relatively flat, marshy Miskito Coast, near the Nicaragua–Honduras line.)
Don’t be shocked if both Central America and Cuba/Florida face the possibility of multiple Cat-4+ landfalls in association with 96L (future Eta).
Yes, I can plot the TVCN hour-by-hour, as indicated below. I think we (forecasters) all want it to just MOVE INLAND AND DIE! (sorry for shouting) We're all ready for a break. Haven't been able to take any vacation days this summer. Myself, I accrued nearly 40 comp DAYS this summer plus I have 20 vacation days left. We are not allowed to carry either over to 2021. So, die, Eta, die!

It would be peak 2020 for Eta to not only rapidly intensify just before landfall, but stay just enough offshore to survive and reintensify

I’m thinking NHC might begin to initiate advisories at 5.

Even finding Eta being a hurricane tomorrow is a possibility. Conditions look good for further development. The only inhibiting factor is it's speed but it should start slowing down soon.

Re: ATL: INVEST 96L - Discussion
If there's a TS watch at 21z, we might have Eta by 0z. Unfortunately too late to be counted for october

Honestly, “heading inland and dying” would be the worst possible outcome in terms of overall impact to Central America, possibly with catastrophic results. Orographic lift would yield torrential rainfall, compounded by slow forward speed, to not mention the impacts of coastal and inland waves as well as intense winds and seiches due to fetch across riparian, coastal lakes and lagoons. At least the U.S., like Cuba, is often better equipped to handle this kind of event. If this system is bound to develop anyway, I would prefer a track offshore to spare Central America from severe impacts. Another Mitch or worse is the very last thing we need. (Not that I’m insinuating anything bad about your intentions, I just want 2020 to minimise overall impacts from this point on.)

Re: ATL: INVEST 96L - Discussion
Curious on the Euro solution and how that would transpire...breaking off into two pieces. Are they saying the mountains would tear apart the low and form a new system to the north? Also, this thing is trucking pretty fast and is a notch north of where models initiating it. A notch could mean a ton.

Followed by movement to the northwest, a brief traverse of the Yucatan, and a then slightly curved track through the gulf and into Louisiana.

However, that could help 2020 to break the November record. Tbh I think whatever happens, storm formation will be pushed back to today in post-season analysis.

Re: ATL: INVEST 96L - Discussion
It definitely looks like a TS on satellite this afternoon. If we have Eta at 5PM we break the record of named storms for a season. However we still need one more tropical cyclone to break the number of storms in one season that being 2005. Eta will tie us with 2005. We an unamed subtropical storm in 2005. This is 2020 so I expect at least another tropical system will develop in November.

Re: ATL: INVEST 96L - Discussion
I haven't paid as much attention to 96L today due to the record situation in the WPAC but this looks like a TS to me. I think we'll have Eta at the next advisory

I'm guessing this system takes off during the favorable part of the diurnal cycle this evening.

You know it’s 2020 when ASCAT fails to detect a budding hurricane and the EPS caves to the GEFS in the short to medium term...as we are witnessing.
