Tropical 2020 Atlantic Hurricane Season Discussion

With the number of storms we have forming in these hostile conditions it’s going to be a September to remember when conditions take a 180.

Heck it's still entirely realistic Laura puts on a show
 
Per the 12Z EPS, the next potential threat is the one that the 12Z Euro is recurving. The 12Z EPS says not so fast as it has two camps, recurving and not: Most of the ones that don't recurve either directly threaten the SE/E coast or linger nearby 9/6-7.

So, if I had to wild guess, I'd say that the next potential threat to the SE/Gulf after Laura/Marco will be around 9/5-10. So, maybe not that long of a break unfortunately even though we could use one.

Note that on the map below that the member over N FL is actually from an earlier wave, possibly from Laura coming back west into FL though I'm not sure it is from Laura. Also, the one over N GA came from the Gulf and is from an MDR wave preceding the MDR wave I think may lead to the next threat, not from Laura.

Here is the 12Z EPS day 10 mean 500H:

Now move ahead to hour 360:

Edit: The GFS suites have very little from the wave on the Euro suite.

Dang....dejavu....
 
Houston or Brownsville or New Orleans or Biloxi or Panama City or Miami or West Palm or Daytona or Hatteras or NYC or Boston or wherever, we may have still another problem:
0Z EPS at 324 (or 9/6): all of these originate from a wave projected to exit Africa around Thursday of this week (8/27):

The setup on the 00z Control is interesting as well.

The same threat is on the 6Z EPS as far out as it goes (144 hours): cxompare 6Z on top with 0Z below it: The wave in question is one coming off Africa in about 3 days (Thursday 8/27).

Hour 240 on euro watch out Bahamas and maybe Florida ??
 
12Z CMC strongly develops this same wave that moves off Africa ~Thursday but fortunately it recurves harmlessly way out at 55W:

The 12Z GFS brings this same wave all of the way to just off FL without developing it.
 
Unlike the last 2 long range EPS runs, the 12Z GEFS, like recent GEFS runs, does little with that Thursday African wave while still east of the SE. However, note the 500 mb flow at the time the EPS has it get close to the SE US...i.e., a totally open door. So, we'd better hope there is nothing nearby then. The 12Z GEFS has westerly steering like the following map shows from 9/3 through the end of the run:

Note that the 12Z GEFS does similarly to the last few show members with a TC in the GOM from the same wave;

Also, the 12Z GEFS appears to bring in a 2nd wave westward into the SE US behind the aforementioned wave,

Regarding that wave set to move off Africa ~8/27, the 12Z Euro is the 3rd run in a row that significantly develops it, but like the first one and unlike the 2nd one it doesn't look to get close to the US as is starting to recurve way out there:

It unfortunately would likely bend back west 1598295675850.png

I can only see Icon out to 9/1....Will be interesting to see what it does with it.
