Drifting east! :roll: Then North. To say the least the GFDL does not have a good handle on this Wave/Blob.

There is no other model that forecasts development. They all but this one take it into Mexico. Don't think I trust the gfdl to take it on its own.

Unless that low pressure over Mexico fades. While the convection moves north into the Bay. Then I don't expect anything at this time to come out of it.

Slight chance in my opinion, but a chance. It will be a fish regardless. :wink:

I don't know if the Nam is very good with cyclones. But here it is.

0 to 18 it slowly moves it northward.
http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/nwprod ... 18_m.shtml

24 to 42 hours it moves it slowly to the north. Also look at our little friend 93L doe's over the Eastern Pacific.
http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/nwprod ... 42_m.shtml

48 to 66 hours it is still moving slowly northward. While developing a closed bar at 54 hours. It seems to form a troical storm over in the Eastern Pacific out of our friend.

http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/nwprod ... 42_m.shtml

With low shear at this time over it. It worth watching.

I got to admit it,I love them landfallers.I wish I could control their strength so they would never get passed CAT 2..None the less there is no feeling like the feeling of a hurricane closing in on you!

That's the mother of all thrill rides! :eek: 8-)

Again I would like to stress that I in no way wish any harm to anyone,the comments above are based on my fascination with hurricanes..Its a hurricane thing,you would'nt understand. :)

It is a huge adrenaline rush!!! The problem is that it is almost impossible to stay safe!!! BTDT, with Camille and Alicia and several other lesser ones. BTW, I was in Gulf Breeze, FL for Camille, not at the center of the hurricane. Alicia came right over my house.

I do believe this states why we can't always trust the models.
