Tropical Major Hurricane Humberto

Yep stuck between 2 ridges with a trough to the NE. Where have we seen that before?

Right! Seems doesn't matter if a TC is a Cape Verde or homegrown they all turn into long trackers....
 
Day 6

Better hope this mills around over water and not land.

Only problem with it milling around over water is the high to the NE building back in, you would think that would push it inland.... of course it sits out there for 3-4 days upwelling and weakening should ensue. Of course 3-4 days of tropical rains would have people inland crying mercy too.....
 
I wouldn't get too deep into the track right now since we really don't have an identifiable center. Basically all we know is the stronger systems will likely trend east a weaker system would be west.

That's a great point. Stronger is east for sure.
 
What’s interesting between 95L vs Dorian is that this time around quiet a few spaghetti models dig inland on various east coast states. Dorian consistently had a void over western NC and verified well east. Everyone is at play so far which is nice for a change. Hats off to Levi yesterday morning for saying it will be tilted east with the convection until it develops and models would likely slow it down (now seeing the stalls) and major track changes as a result (which occurred today).
 
NHC....covering the bases....that's a big cone....working hard to find the center so this cone has some guidance to it.

Levi's latest....

 
GFS is gonna head to the gulf again and be a weaker, sheared out mess but also hopefully help a little with rain.

I think based off what I saw from the Euro though, I'll have seen enough if it has a stronger solution again. We'll of course discuss it and go over it for the next few days but it'll be obvious enough the GFS and other solutions are probably out to lunch.
 
@180 finally moving north on the ICON with whatever the wave coming off Africa name will be at that time in tow....

The concern for us here in NC on the icon would be how far east it got before it returned to the north movement. It has to clear hatteras or it would be another hit. Of course this also the icon.

That will be a very, very dangerous solution if the ridge builds in like the Euro depicted and you get some sort of Fujiwara dance.
 
Code RED

Btw their cone mostly goes into the Gulf

Widespread cloudiness and showers extending from the southeastern
Bahamas northward over the southwestern Atlantic for a few hundred
miles are associated with a sharp trough of low pressure. Although
limited development of this system is anticipated tonight and
Thursday, conditions are forecast to become a little more conducive
for tropical cyclone formation over the weekend, and a tropical
depression is likely to form as the system moves slowly toward the
west-northwest across the Florida Straits and southeastern Florida,
and into the eastern Gulf of Mexico.
This disturbance will likely
produce periods of locally heavy rainfall and gusty winds across the
Bahamas through Friday, and across Florida during the weekend. An
Air Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft is scheduled to
investigate the system Thursday afternoon, if necessary.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...50 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...70 percent.

And Alabama!!! LOL
 
Not bad, too bad this solution might be (okay probably is) out to lunch. It'd be even better if the green areas were filled in a bit more:

@ForsythSnow not only does the ICON say no rain for you but you get west side TC subsidence induced heat wave

I really hope the ICON is wrong (it's beginning to feel like Arizona here). Last nights Euro makes me think that this will be stronger and go east. Still don't have a well defined center so hopefully it will stay weak and go more west.
 
It’s no wonder why the GFS is weak/showing what it’s showing (weak gulf solution), it’s saying that one, more southwestern center of circulation will remain the dominant one hence it would probably have a better chance of moving out into the gulf, the ICON/EURO on the other hand has that center more to the East that wins out, which make more sense and would mean a more northernly jog into the Gulf Stream, in this setup it all depends on where a blowup of Convection develops allowing sfc vorticity hence a new center some miles east or west make the huge difference, I’m thinking something in between all this mess, there’s also other things impacting this like the ridge and ULL 94479374-ED1B-4F76-A320-44834324F35A.jpeg4CAB8124-83DA-4B7A-9324-F3A7ED0666FE.jpeg
 
12Z UKMET: staying OTS as mentioned. That's quite interesting for a model with an overall left bias. Intriguing really.

Literally its adding insult to injury. Why does the icon have to do this to us?

Welp dry ground = somewhat drier air/higher temps so it would make it harder for a storm to barrel in and max high temps would likely verify higher, that sucks ?
 
Since it’s a weaker storm vs what Dorian was, 250mb trough in GA is pulling/tugging it in a bit more effectively 39816874-DACF-466B-8060-D0F8933CCB04.jpeg
 
If we are lucky euro will trend east more and catch the next storm and tow it out to sea too! 2 for 1 from Humberto (the storm that replaced Hugo)!
 
12z CMC moves east on and off coast through FL. Let's hope nothing spins up with that scenario....

Thankfully, that kind of track (along or near the coast) would obviously keep a lid on the strength due to a combo of land interaction and slow movement resulting in cooling of the SSTs underneath it such as was the case with Dorian. However, the main problem though would be the enormous amounts of rainfall. The heavy rainfall aspect could easily turn out to be the biggest headache from this very slow mover, especially if it as a flood proned place like CHS.
 
Exactly Canadian rides inland all the way up Florida Coast at 12z, floods eastern SC GA NC. Gets drizzle right up to the neighbors house across the street from Shettleys house and stops.

Speaking of droughts where's Shettley been. This has turned into prime time for him

The look on the last frame of the ICON is nuts. That is probably another crushing hit on DC the next few frames.
