Tropical Hurricane Ian

satellite is rapidly improving if you ask me. Cloud field is filling in and expanding and banding is really looking better.We should also now have a definitive center for the models to lock on to.
 
Uh, I wouldn’t count on that. Other models are further west.

Yeah, my thought when I was watching the GFS was "if it plays out this way, there's a zero percent chance the Braves will be playing on Friday."

I think that actually might be a reasonable track to look for too.
 
It’s interesting the Euro continues to stick with the Tampa landfall for the past few days.

If its 12z ensemble members and mean are just east of the Op I’d give it even more weight vs a central Panhandle type solution. Euro and UK are pretty close inside day 5 and that’s a potent combo as mentioned.
 
The thing that has me scratching my head is while the NHC is showing a major along the path, nothing close shows up in the Euro path.
We all know that a major tends to do different things to forecast as compared a weaker storm.
I'm not sure how to reconcile it.

Euro says front misses Ian pretty handily , just want to level-set on what East means. It does not mean much if any opportunity for him to get in to the ATL, atleast per this run. Kinda stalls in the SE for a couple days before lifting out through the OH Valley—>NE. We would have several days of onshore flow, don't see much SVR verbatim. N GA and W NC would be spots for greatest flood potential.
