00Z GFS can never quite get the potential W Carribean storm going weak TS into TX would be a rain maker.

I don't believe this scenario more runs to come but as we move into a phase 3 MJO a strong system is coming somewhere along the gulf coast.

0Z EPS is still very active in the MDR late in the run/something to watch for late Sept:

After Larry, the EPS ensembles show absolutely nothing in the MDR through September 15. I think the main threat to the U.S. will come in October.

Interestingly enough, I checked what the same ensembles had for the EPAC and it pretty much showed nothing either there, maybe a very weak cyclone near the end of this week otherwise. I wonder why those ensembles are showing both basins to be quiet through this timeframe (peak September of all times too), something doesn't make sense in my honest opinion if you ask me.

Re: 2021 Global Model Runs Discussion (Out thru day 16)
There’s some EPS and GEFS ensemble support for a MDR system or two in the next ten days. The first wave the Euro likes might come off at a high latitude, but a second on September 15th might have better luck. We could get another high-ACE long tracker once the ridge builds back in. Also, since it’s peak season, we’ll need to watch out for any sleeper waves that develop further west.
Edit: the 00z GFS showed the same September 13-15th wave develop like the Euro, but the 06z run dropped it.

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.

About potential W Carib/W Gulf system GEFS has been showing late this week into this weekend...

I’m thinking the WCar/Gulf system could either be a quick spin-up in the BoC, or an Earl ‘16/Franklin ‘17 repeat. Ridging looks quite strong over the central US when the disturbance is in the BoC. This is 5-8 days out so there’s lots of time to watch for changes.

It really depends which center takes over, and the 12z gfs shows 3 areas of vorticity. Initially it’s very similar to ida’s formation where there is a gyre center sw and wave axis ne. It favors the wave axis, but then splits it in 2 and favors the southern one. Given the gfs’s tendency to favor gyres, I am inclined to lean toward the northernmost center

Re: 2021 Global Model Runs Discussion (Out thru day 16)
Any potential TC in the MDR would likely need to form on or before 13 September to hit the CONUS, given that it would take a week to cross, along with the fact that very few CV cyclones have hit the CONUS after 20 September. I think CV threats to the CONUS are likely finished and that we need to watch the Caribbean in October. Of course, the Islands still need to watch CV threats through late September.

So the GFS decides to drop any discernible quick development of 91L but sure loves to intensify and stall that WCAR-born storm behind it…hmm…

Looks like a quite a progressive pattern across North America and the Atlantic, certainly no widespread expansive ridges over the eastern CONUS or SE Canada on this run of the GFS. Looks more like a fall pattern:

That’s not how climatology works. Climatology is an averaging of individual anomalies to use the past to serve as a general indicator, it does not dictate the future

"Likely" is based on climatological averages.

I must have misread, I could have sworn your post said “needs to form”, not “would likely need to form”.
