Re: ATL : INVEST 96L - Discussion
Few days ago some thought the GFS was nuts with this signficant trof for this time of the year. It was on the money.

Based on What ? The models dont reflect this at this time. maybe they will change but there is nothing base that on right now.
I glad you asked that look at the water vapor loop and that trough is still diggging SE and the dry line is slowly advancing east. Notice the flow across Florida is not South to North but SW to NE thats why I feel this might be a non event for SE Florida. I'm willing to bet the NWS will lower the rainfall rates to mabe an inch.if I'm wrong I'll give you my address and you can serve me crow.

I do see the trough but i think it is about to stall based on the models. but even if I am right I wont serve you crow

Good point about fronts never making it this far south which I would agree with you 99% of the time.The 1% had this cuoff low dive Seward towards Alambama and Georgia which is driving the trough really far south which will force 96L away from Florida.

The trough diving this far south is what will drive this into eastern florida , look at the water vapor the flow is from the south ton the NNE.

I'd like to see the water vapor tomorrow morning to see if it stops progressing east like you said whichwould change everything I said, but I still think this trough has enough push to atleast deflect this into the bahamas as of now.

Well we will know in the morning.. no need for anymore speculations tonight... morning visible will help determine where the LLC developed and also how fast the Low over the SE is moving North. if its faster than the models then things may change a little. right now our invest is still not moving and time is running out..

We've been watching this thing supposedly going to develop for well over a week and it went from going to really pack a wallop to being just a torrential rain event to maybe just a few passing clouds to our east.The NWS really blew the forecast for the Orlando area today as well. We were supposed to have an 80% chance of rain today, (eight-zero!), as in just 20% less than guaranteed rain and I got not one freaking drop here at my house, not even a trace!
I turned off my irrigation system this weekend expecting big rains and my lawn is down right crispy. I know long range models are for the birds, but apparently short range models can prove to be completely wrong too. Sorry for the rant, now back to our regularly scheduled disorganized blob gazing.
The rainfall coverage forecast, from southeast to northwest across central Florida was 40% to 60% from late morning through early evening.

I'm pretty much convinced now that this will never achieve the convective organization required for classification. Oh well.

OT, but my call for Matthew was a less than 50 knot peak. Its peak was 45 knots; how is that a bad call?
The CMC is completely strung-out. That's not a good sign if one wants to see a tc, especially considering that this is precisely the kind of thing the CMC overdoes (i.e. baroclinically enhanced things).

What is the preoccupation with being "right"?
All you guys are doing is guessing, you don't know what is going to happen.
Does it make you feel "special" if you guess right?
Is this a GAME to you?
If it makes you feel any better or helps you, I think you are very "special" and we all wish we were as "special" as you since sometimes you guess correctly!
