Tropical Hurricane Ida

Agreed. I wonder how close this might develop to Jamaica......I think the East shift, Short term only, in the models will continue today.

That's just it, Whenever this potential storm officially has a sustainable center is when the models get a grip on the path and strength. Just looking at the ensembles I don't think many has a path off the coast of Jamaica. I would also like to keep a watch on that area of high pressure on the Atlantic now. It has been slowly pushing out to sea every run.
 
Could see another tornado outbreak for western NC if euro is right we could end up on the right dirty side yet again…
 
Yeah tbh, I hate to wish this but almost need that ridge slightly stronger to keep the track west of the Apps, western NC does not need any rain right now

excuse me?
With more visible images now it looks like there could be something around 78.5 and 16.5 give or take a little.

Definitely some westerly flow on the southern end showing up. All systems go.
 
TD9 is here and now we will soon get very fast updates up until landfall (multiple landfalls poss). Recon will get busy.
 
From the NHC discussion

Once the system moves into the Gulf of
Mexico, conditions are expected to be conducive for additional
strengthening, and rapid intensification is explicitly shown in
the NHC forecast between 48 and 72 hours. The NHC intensity forecast
brings the system near major hurricane strength when it approaches
the northern Gulf coast on Sunday.
This forecast is supported by the
HWRF and CTCI models, and the GFS, ECMWF, and UKMET global model
guidance, which all significantly deepen the cyclone over the Gulf
of Mexico. As a result, there is higher-than-normal confidence
that a strengthening tropical cyclone will be moving over the Gulf
this weekend.
