That's odd cause my local met, last night, said that Emmie and the high may meet and that will cause a steering pattern more towards Florida....hmmmmmmmmmmm???

If -removed- hurricanes is related to a deep, dark, hidden desire to have danger come your way, then some here may have mixed emotions about this information. If we assume it's good news, then it's good for us, and bad for someone else. But what we all have in common, I think, is that we are amazed and in awe of these potentially powerful storms.

It's way too far out to know at this point.

HOw long is the high supposed to stay strong? I thought the NHC indicated that Emily may start wnw at some point soon. Has there thinking changed?

Model guidance has shifted south as indicated by the 5 am discussion from the national hurricane center

EMILY WILL
CONTINUE TO BE STEERED BY THE FLOW ON THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF A
SUBTROPICAL RIDGE. DYNAMICAL TRACK GUIDANCE FOR THIS PACKAGE HAS
SHIFTED SOUTHWARD SOMEWHAT. THIS SHIFT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE
GLOBAL MODEL'S PREDICTION OF THE FORMATION OF A RATHER STRONG
MID-TROPOSPHERIC HIGH OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN U.S. LATE IN THE
FORECAST PERIOD. THE OFFICIAL TRACK FORECAST IS ADJUSTED SOUTHWARD
IN THIS ADVISORY...HOWEVER IT IS NORTH OF THE LATEST CONSENSUS
MODEL TRACK.

The people in the Gulf Coast won't like the possible senario, and I feel terrible for them. If this gal Emily survives the trip over the islands, (or goes South of them), this could be another Ivan-Dennis senario. Please don't forget the people of Puerto Rico, Cuba, Hispaniola, and Jamaica, some of whom stand to get crunched twice within a week. :(

yes, it's looking better for us

#13 Postby Weatherboy1 » Tue Jul 12, 2005 9:35 am

Just my opinion, of course, but things look better today than yesterday here in South FL. My original thought was this would take a Dennis path, a Georges path or an Andrew path. With each day Emily stays on a due W heading and the models intensify the ridge, the less and less likely the Andrew path is (or even the Georges path, for that matter).

Is the Bermuda High stronger than last year? Maybe the reason all these storms are going into the Caribbean is that the waves are developing closer to the Windwards. But something like Frances where it developed far out to sea and strengthened quickly could ride the Bermuda High all the way to Florida :eek: .

I was gonna say the same. Is that bermuda high so strong that it is keeping all these systems south and going into the carib?
