The A98E doesn't have it veering SW into Nicaragua. I'm shocked!

On a lighter note, I am NOT liking the path those models take right now. I wish they'd shift back west.

Don't even bother looking at the 06Z GFS then... :wink:

Whelp...we'll see what the 12Z models indicate..they should rolling out in another 3 hours or so. There is some hope that the terrain to the south will start to interrupt Ivan some until it gets a little more to the north.

MW - the UKMET comes out a couple of hours after the GFS, right?

Oh and, are the above BAMs and LBAR based on the 0Z or the 6Z GFS?

I think it's WAY too early to worry about another Florida landfall. I have gut feeling this baby will not bother Florida. Please don't ask me why.
It's just a gut feeling. But the way my gut feeling was not that far off with Frances. I said it was going make landfall
from the Key's to Miami. Hey I got the state right. :)

If it follows UKMET, I have a strange feeling this may the big one that New Orleans has been dreading for years.

GOM . . . Could Be

#14 Postby TideFreak » Tue Sep 07, 2004 9:11 am

Granted we are a good way out on forecasts, but the GOM is starting to look like a very strong possibility. LA to FL. I surely don't want to wish it on someone else, like us, but the poor people in Florida just cannot take another one.

The posts or stuff said are NOT an official forecast and my opinion alone. Please look to the NHC and NWS for official forecasts and products.

Model Runs Cheat Sheet:
GFS (5:30 AM/PM, 11:30 AM/PM)
HWRF, GFDL, UKMET, NAVGEM (6:30-8:00 AM/PM, 12:30-2:00 AM/PM)
ECMWF (1:45 AM/PM)
TCVN is a weighted averaged

Opinions my own.
