Re: ATL: INVEST 98L - Models
The 18z GFS is stalling 98L in the Central Atlantic in the long run, I've never seen that before . . .

It's a busted run and doesn't line up with the GEFS at all.

Re: ATL: INVEST 98L - Models
Despite staying further east and going over cooler waters in comparison to other runs, that’s still an easy 20-30 ACE on the 18z 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.

Re: ATL: INVEST 98L - Models
18z HMON is now showing a more reasonable evolution that’s more in line with the HWRF and globals: slow development with a TD/TS forming between late Thursday and early Friday.

no matter how stupid it is, it’s still a solution.

Re: ATL: INVEST 98L - Models
18z HWRF simulated IR suggests 98L will be experiencing shear in the 4-5 day range.

Re: ATL: INVEST 98L - Models
So I guess all of the current model forecasts are gonna get chucked out the window soon…
Or is this gonna pump the ridge like Chanthu was forecast to? Or is it going to enhance a TUTT like Maysak last year?

Seems like it just amplifies the pattern, which could do either - but mostly just makes the forecast harder to predict. Add in the unknown future states of Peter, Rose, and the remnants of Odette, and its gonna be tricky - hopefully its well out to see though.

Here are the two 'worst-case scenarios' (1898 and 1893):
1898 Georgia hurricane

Shouldn’t hurricane Kate from 1985 be on this list?

He forgot Irma of all storms too lol, probably the worst case of a Cape Verde system
EDIT: I see he had October, November or December only, however we still have 10 days left in September...

0z GFS looking fairly similar to 18z so far

About 3 degrees further west though, in fact the westernmost of recent runs. You would need to go back to 06z to find anything close.

Re: ATL: INVEST 98L - Models
The remnants of Peter look like they're getting out of there much quicker than last run. I'm expecting 98L to get further west this run than the 18z
