Did these models do ok with previous systems? I was just wondering as I’ve seen them posted in the before. The Caribbean may need to be watched soon


It's new this year and I haven't been following it that closely, but I remember it not being enthusiastic about 91L at all. We'll see if the GFS and EURO ensembles become more enthusiastic for by the end of the month.

FWIW the 06z Euro AI has a system coming into the Gulf towards the end of September

The Caribbean towards Gulf system doesn't show up on the Euro or GFS ensembles and until Google can show it out-predict the physics based ensembles, I disregard unless it has at least one model family's support.

6Z Euro, ok, it is pretty lonely, but the October 1949 Freeport Cat 2 crossed from the Pacific. Must have been either a cutoff low well S of where they usually settle or a strong negative tilt trough to do that. 0Z ensembles had one member which hits Louisiana as a 975 mb storm. I assume slop gyre genesis with the Pacific more likely to see a system than the Gulf.

That's not completely accurate. Both GEFS and EPS indicate development in the exact same area at the 9-10 day mark. Very modest support, but it absolutely mirrors the AI output from both Euro AI and Google sets. Here's the latest output for reference.

Watching the western gulf/ caribbean in the 8 -10 day range , things are starting to look a little bit interesting

The few systems showing up on the GFS/Euro ensembles are generating over Central America, the BoC or Pacific. The Google ensembles have something developing in the Caribbean S of Jamaica/Cuba. Maybe the slop gyro extends that far out away from Central America but the much lower support for a CAG system from the physics ensembles suggests it is a moot point where any system that could enter the Gulf develops, because it probably won't.

I mean, it is true that the physics models show a low amount of support for a system considering how far out they're showing development, some ensemble members that do develop on them originate from the Caribbean south of Cuba. The physics models also try to spin up something in the BoC and off the coast of Belize which I'm guessing is what you're talking about. Here's the Deep Mind vs. GEFS ensembles:

I can't get the Euro ensembles out to 360hrs for free (i.e. weathernerds isn't going to show it because the members that develop are 300+ hrs out), but the gif lsuhurricane posted shows a similar pattern of development that the GEFS shows. It also looks like out to 384hrs the GEFS develops another member or two. So, both the AI and physics models show some development in the SW Caribbean, its just that the physics model signal is very small (to the point I put little weight in it for now—just watch and see).

Yes, the DeepMind models are quite keen on a strong storm in the WCar/GoM in the 9-12 day period where the GFS/ECMWF aren't as interested. It will be interesting to see what happens over the next few days as the AI models correctly forecast 91L much moreso than the regular models.

Recent FNV3 runs generally show 3 systems: the wave behind Gabrielle develops near 60W at around day 7, the west Caribbean system around day 9 and another wave in the MDR around day 12.

00Z FNV3 continues to show this, and I think the Caribbean system is actually the 10/20 wave a few days ago.

You can see the few GFS/Euro ensembles members that have a system in the Gulf develop it in the SW Caribbean, BoC or Pacific, the AI ensembles are developing something in the Caribbean. They are showing 2 different ways to get a storm in the Gulf. Op Euro (and to a lesser extent develop a wave from the east just north of the Greater Antilles beyond 240 hours, GFS is meh but Euro at 360 has a potent low S of MS/AL/FL starting to make the turn northward beyond the STR. The op models may be indirectly supporting the Google ensembles of a wave developing in the Caribbean. My gut, nothing will be in the Gulf or W Caribbean in 2 weeks. 15 days is silly range where the op is no better than any ensemble member.

Oh, free Euro ensembles to 360 hours

Regardless of what the long range models are showing, I believe there will be something in the gulf. In fact, I would bet on 2 or even 3 before end season

I agree with you caneman. The gulf and Caribbean should be watched for sure. The season is not over yet.

I'm starting to think 2 or 3 Gulf systems is a smidge high but I'm sure they'll be one in or near Florida in October simply because of the past few years.

GFS caving to the Euro AIFS, weak TS moving in between the florida straits, AIFS gets a lot more weight since it has done pretty good with the last several systems and showing no development, now that its showing more consistently with developing this one, it deserves to be watched closely

Dont think you'll have twin tc's of the keys but the fact its showing something in the same area as Ai as you mentioned it deserves some weight. Well see

The left-most entity seems to come from the ULL currently to Gabrielle's west. As it dips south it interacts with tropical moisture near Hispaniola and that interaction forms a LLC north of the island, which strengthens due to a favourable upper-level pattern. The second entitity is the yellow lemon, I believe.
