Trouble Ahead, New Euro Thinks so.

The 12z Euro Shows a possible Tropical Cyclone North of the Dominican Republic on Day 7, it has this feature as a small L on day 6 and then strengthens it to a closed low on Day 7.

Please Read the Black Text I put in the image...

I wish I had a nickel for every Day 7 model-indicated tropical entity which failed to materialize.

So far you would be pretty poor if you were going against the ecmwf....it has not showed really any phantoms all year long...

This is the model I would put my trust in before any other model....


What do you think this is? The GFS? :hehe: :rofl:

Do you have a main page link we could access loops at?
it has not showed really any phantoms all year long...
that may be a symptom of being overly conservative....has it failed to predict any systems with DID develop?

The ensemble forecasts we get to see at university from the ECMWF do tend to be very good, but they should be able to go get the weather right for that area as the ECMWF is just down the road from the met department. :lol:

Edit - To answer a latter post there are no loops, but the main page is at http://www.ecmwf.int

Check out this link too for future possibilities as the GFS sees it:
http://moe.met.fsu.edu/cgi-bin/gfstc2.c ... hour=144hr

Then the MM5fsu shows a few other interesting possibilities:

>>that may be a symptom of being overly conservative....has it failed to predict any systems with DID develop?

It underplayed a couple of them with a southern bias and out to the Pacific. But the European model is also my model of choice for the 4-6 day period. There's a better link to more detailed models than their own. If I posted the one to their site and the North American run (either surface or 850), it would make this thread 5 screens wide. What you do is go to Google, type in ECMWF. Click the first link. Click on the maps. Click on North America on the left side, then choose the current or current -12 hours to run the loops.

There's a more detailed version of the ECMWF that comes out on the College of DuPage's website, but they don't get the data in all that fast. Nevertheless, I recommend checking it out from time to time - especially with the Cape Verde season - since it doesn't have the heat problems (aka "up and out") with recurvature that most of the US Generated models have.

Here's the link to the DuPage runs:

Actually, if I'm not mistaken, the GFS has done well this year, so far anyway.

I believe the reference is to the scale feedback/convection feedback issues that the GFS was displaying in the GOM back in June. It wanted to bomb out just about anything that it came across in the BOC area.

As far as track forecasting goes, despite occasional quirks (like when it suddenly wanted to put Emily into Belize), it seems to have done well, according to a couple of NHC discussions and a comment by Mr. Sutherland on the analysis board.

I don't think it has any kind of admirable record, however, when it comes to cyclone formation.
