Is there a weakness forecast in that area, or if you could go out further would there be a shift back to the West?(I know thats way out just wondering)

If those tracks hold out it could spell trouble for the East Coast with the GFDL being the outlier here.

Esta loco esa trajectoria verdad?

It's a crazy track right?

No se porque este modelo GFDL hace eso.

I can't figure out why GFDL tracks that way.

Lets wait for it to get convection over its center before we start saying it could hit the EC.

Correct me if I'm wrong but the GFDL kills it off doesn't it?

In the 18z GFDL kills it at 78 hours,more hours than the 12z which was at 30 hours.

Is the center under that new blow up of convection, or West of it?

Yeah, currently 91L is over 26 to 27 degree water.

It will be moving over warmer water tonight and tomorrow.

91L isn't that far north though, but yes it looks like 26-27 degree water regardless.

I was just going to post such a model plot to demonstrate that you cannot trust the BAM models when the steering currents are changing ahead of a disturbance. All the dynamic models that account for such changes in the steering flow take the disturbance more westward as high pressure builds north of 99L.

I think the XTRAP (extrapolated track) may not be too bad here, maybe it's too far north, though. GFS, at least, indicates a very strong ridge north of the Caribbean later this week that may drive anything in there due west toward the southern Yucatan. And the high builds west with time.

Might as well post my image:

Yes, I drew the circle a little too far north (its closer to 12N instead of 15N), but the temps are the same.
