Gosh, Bastardi called it a couple of days ago...I was skeptical, but I'm impressed since it doesn't appear that any one else was getting it.

Question...has this happened before????

Not to my knowledge. JB called this last Fridat 9/17! I was kinda sceptical but I followed the remnants and darn it did as JB said it would. Plus they did rename it Ivan! Very, very interesting.

This is CRAZY.

So much for all those post the other day that Ivan was gone.

Hopefully Ivan Jr. will just bring some much needed
rain to the western/central GOM.

Any guesses out there where he'll make landfall and
what intensity.

Question: Was I wrong when I heard the local news
say if he attains TS force he'll still be
called Ivan?

The other day there was a lot of heated debate
whether he'll be Ivan or Matthew.

I just hope he isn't like a typical man and didn't stop to ask for directions when he was origionally supposed to come to Fort myers, and decided to back track and find his way! With this season...anything is possible...

Well that squall is over and another is about an hour from me. Really cool outside as it's dusk and you can see the clouds just racing by.

Quote:

"I have no changes on Ivan. The ackowledgement by both TPC and the
Navy Research Lab as to what this system is certainly was welcomed
for me as it justifies my argument. And it is important, not for my
own selfish interest, but because if it can come back, it simply adds
to the history of what is arguably one of the five most impressive
storms of the century. In addition, with Lisa and Karl on the charts,
and a strong system behind Lisa, there is a chance that five storms
are on the charts at once Thursday morning.

The "danger" with Ivan is the endgame, as that is when the upper
pattern becomes favorable for rapid development as it nears the
coast. The system gets into the area of warmest water, which is 85-88
F and at the perfect side of the upper high with the upper low
backing rapidly away. I like the idea of a 50- to 60-knot tropical
storm near 27.5 and 95 by Thursday morning, and then a move inland
Thursday night or Friday, perhaps followed by a turn southwest as the
big high over northwest Texas builds. So let's just keep it as it is
now, and understand that intensity is the compromise between the
system being no stronger than it is now and something that could blow
up to a hurricane as it's coming ashore.
The message here is be aware
of the endgame here; it is a very tricky look."
