Are models picking up on ridging or is the influence of an upper-level low that is sitting over the Western tip of Cuba....with SE to NW upper-level flow North of Cuba and over the Bahamas?
It's clearly seen spinning in this loop:

Re: ATL: SANDY - Models
Regardless how close it gets to FL just the pressure gradient between Sandy and the big high pressure will mean very windy and rough water conditions for eastern FL, beach erosion will be a big problem, IMO.

Re: ATL: SANDY - Models
Models do not factor in how Sandy may "skip"around, when first hits S. Cuba coast (x factor)
Could get interesting for Keys/ S. Fl

Possible..maybe a slight shift to the left.
Hopefully these adjustments stop though.

Re: ATL: SANDY - Models
It's interesting to note that the more intense part of the storm is being predicted to be on the west side of the storm. Do we have any verificiation on how models do with predicting the intensity of different parts of storms?
