Still a hurricane this afternoon according to the 18:00z run of the models.

[P.K.]

Remember they didn't follow the mid-day model guidance though.

987hPa is nothing special..... (Currently 974hPa here )

P.K. you will have to watch this one as it may go to your area.

Holy Crap!! It's a Cane!

[P.K.]

Have to admit I haven't really been looking at this in the models. Most of the models seem to show a high blocking it from heading here, but the Met Office model is a bit more complicated.

Epsilon's strengthening should not surprise anyone if you have been monitoring space weather activity. We have seen a considerable increase during the prior 36 hours. Especially the last 12 hours.

I wrote about the importance of some energetic particle levels in my AMO discussion. These levels have been reached.

http://www.storm2k.org/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=78570

Certain levels during the past 48 hours have not been seen since around the times of Katrina and Rita.

I will post something later on about what has exactly occurred along with some links.

Yes and wow, this is very interesting. I don't understand half of that but it inspiring me so much that I think I'll compose a new music works on that, kind of abstract cosmic drama related to earth climate and human life... with poems and all.
Science always inspiring me, even when I was a rock drummer.

By the way, the last time we saw a hurricane in December was in 1984 when Lili reached hurricane status.

[Derek Ortt]

actually, Hurricane Nicole occurred in 1998 in the month of December

Dont forget Olga.

[whereverwx]

I don't think Olga counts as a hurricane for the month of December. She was a hurricane on the 26th-29th of November. Though, she did last into December only as a tropical storm. So, I don’t know.

[cycloneye]

Oh forget the above post of Olgas track as she was a hurricane at late november ( 26th to the 29th).I should haved looked first but nobody is perfect.

Let me explain myself. The last time we saw a hurricane develop in December (the storm could have formed in November, but reached hurricane status in December) was Lili in 1984.

Nicole reached hurricane status in November and lasted until December 1st as a hurricane.

Olga reached hurricane status in November and dissipated in December.

Therefore, they don't count!

Noel lasted from Nov. 5 to the 6th!

[vbhoutex]

Did someone forget to tell Epsilon that this is December?!?!?! This is way past freaking insane!!!! Even a similarity to this year next season will be too much!!!

[f5]

Its no suprise to me that 2005 would have a Hurricane in december this year didn't follow the rules of climotology anyways
