11pm NHC Discussion on Emily

#1 Postby Stormcenter » Thu Jul 14, 2005 10:09 pm

Very interesting quote at the end of the 11pm NHC discussion on Emily. I think this storm has the makings of Texas storm. IMO


However...especially beyond that time...the overall
guidance envelope has shifted quite significantly to the north.
The official forecast is adjusted to the right of the previous
track...by an increasing amount beyond 48 hours...but remains on
the left side of the dynamical models.

With the key word being "significantly"...

The most significant part of that snippet is this:

by an increasing amount beyond 48 hours

I agree... and I'm starting to wonder if my "like Allen" thinking will be too far south...

No, they said the model guidance shifted significantly north.

The NHC track was shifted slightly north, but its on the south side of the model guidance. IF the models continue to show a more north track, the NHC track may shift further north.

I think Emily has a few surprises for everyone in about 48 hours.

Emily had better hit Jamiaca or the Yucatan and weaken some. The waters in the western GOM are cooking and when Emily gets there (if she does) it could spell trouble.....MGC

In tropical-eese, what do the phrases "quite significantly" and "by an increasing amount" really mean? In other words, are we talking hundreds or tens of miles??

Hundreds of miles, in my opinion.

The main jist of this advisory is this: if you're the "be prepared before your neighbors type", it probably is a good idea to get some of your hurricane supplies going now if you live anywhere from Houston to Brownsville. The storm may not impact you, but Texas is overdue for a major cane and I would guess that a good number of people are not prepared... which means the rush on supplies if something DOES happen will be rather large.
