Re: ATL: IRENE - Models
I don't see how that could happen with all the models showing the weekness strong enough to pull it north east of south fla. Unless the high builds in even for the short term then I guess it would be possible.

Re: ATL: IRENE - Models
Looking at the NAM for 500mb heights... It looks like troughing in 60 hours is not as prevalent as it is now. It's much flatter.

That system would definitely have affects on South Florida... No question about it.

Re: ATL: IRENE - Models
The operational NAM is horrible with tropical cyclones, you are only -removed- if you are using it as evidence of possible impacts.

lol, "-removed-"....
NAM is a synoptics model. Those synoptics favor a track near the Florida peninsula.

But it does a very good job with overall synoptics.....

No one is -removed-. The NAM is good for spotting trends, and more importantly, the synoptics to steer storms.

Looking and saying what the NAM is showing is hardly "-removed-".

Oh no the dreaded W word..
Although when it comes to the NAM I tend to forget that there is even a tropical cyclone evident and look at the much larger features such as troughs and ridging... ie synoptics
and just when I start to think Im smart and know what Im talking about I remember that my Den doesnt look like this....

It is going to be a tense couple of day to say the least

Disclaimer: 50% of the time I have no clue of what I am talking about. Chances are I am taking a less than educated guess that sounds good because 10 years ago I stole Mike Watkins book 'The Hurricane and its Impact'. For official information please direct yourself to the NHC and their cadre of weather geniuses.

I guess you make good points but hopefully the changes would show up on the global models and then they would correctly project the track.
