Thanks man yeah it took me an hour to write and I have been editing bits of it the last hour as well aha. Like the "decoupled" part at the end. It now makes more sense with the "serious talk" association. I get random spurts of weather nerd humor in the middle of the night all the time ahaha

06Z GFS, 355K PV Forecast showing the Jet north of Karl slowing eroding from run to run.
Door is opening slowly for Karl to possibly make a run into the main GoM.

Is it becoming likely that Karl will end up hitting somewhere on the Gulf Coast?

Please refer to the NWS, NHC, SPC or a professional meteorologist for information and decision making during storms.
Re: ATL: KARL - Tropical Storm - Discussion
Karl may be ugly and disheveled, but recon has found that it is indeed a TC, and a slightly stronger one at that (1002mb vs the 5am advisory’s 1006mb).

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: KARL - Tropical Storm - Discussion
Karl is already north of its 1pm forecast point and I'm not sure if the high-pressure area is going to make it far enough eastward to push Karl south.

Re: ATL: KARL - Tropical Storm - Discussion
It’s funny to me, Julia had all the convection but a disheveled circulation until the last minute, while Karl shows a very well defined circulation that really just needs some convection to start strengthening again

Re: ATL: KARL - Tropical Storm - Discussion
No, there is nothing to indicate that Karl is going to track north into the northern Gulf or to Florida. Strong ridge is building south into the Gulf. There is 50-70 kts of westerly wind shear across the entire Gulf. This will halt Karl's north movement and shove it south into Mexico. It's very disorganized this morning, with an exposed center and barely 35kt winds in a few spots. It should remain a weak, disorganized storm until it dissipates over the southern BoC in 48-72 hrs.

Re: ATL: KARL - Tropical Storm - Discussion
The exact position of the weak storm center is irrelevant. It cannot track north across the jet stream to reach the northern Gulf or Florida. Ridge building southward into the Gulf today will push anything in the BoC south, no matter where the center is.

Re: ATL: KARL - Tropical Storm - Discussion
Not a single model is indicating any synoptic change that would let Karl move north. Sure it's moving north now, but 3 mph is basically a drift. As wxman57 said, even if something entirely unexpected happens and Karl does move north, it'll be decapitated by shear long before it reaches the Gulf Coast.

That motion is based on the previous center position to the current position, it does not necessarily reflect its present movement. Karl absolutely cannot track north across the Gulf. We'll begin seeing the south movement today.

The forecast track and intensity is starting to remind me a bit of Larry 2003. It took a southward track in this area too.

Re: ATL: KARL - Tropical Storm - Discussion
Nice burst of convection near the center. I still don't think this will be able to get stronger than 45kts but at least it has some decent convection closer to the center now.
