Euro is nothing like GFS. At 144 is staring down the outer banks of NC. Will be very close call as to what happens next. Due N or NNE?

Re: ATL: KATIA - Models
Scary thing is how reputable euro is. The are the most superior, more-so than any other model, including GFS. This is like looking down the bottom of a barrel to me. So EURO is most SW and GFS is much more NE the more time passes, how does that happen? The more east one goes, the more west another goes. So strange. I am fearful that this really could be the outcome and time is really limited to get people OUT of there. Even if it is a 'just in case' it needs to be initiated now, last minute evacuations are so irresponsible. Just to get others thoughts, what is your opinion on the EURO 12z vs this one. For me it looks more west now, but I could be just seeing things.

Re: ATL: KATIA - Models
It is slightly further west on its closest approach to the US. As far evacuations though, after what happened with Irene you can forget anyone evacuating. Plus, politicians will be very nervous about calling for evacuations after being accused of hyping irene.meriland23 wrote:Scary thing is how reputable euro is.

Route 12 on the OBX has a breach, so they need to evac by ferry. Right now they are bring back residents over the next couple of days. If this keeps up that may stop.

Nhc may say they are in-between GF and EU but to me, their track looks like 90% GF favored than EU and I can't understand why.

xironman where do you get that euro image from?
That is so sad. I mean, you tell people to leave for Irene kind of as a precaution and since it was over hyped (rightfully so, otherwise people would have stayed behind and possibly died from the flooding) people treat it like 'the boy who cried wolf' assuming all hurricanes are overhyped, and roll their eyes and continue.
