This is definitely not out of the realm of possibility.GFS wants to troll me this Friday.

tbh i misread your first message.. thought you were implying more than just "strengthening". i still don't think it gets its act together in time but if it is able to spend more time over water the next few days and consolidate then what you're saying is totally reasonableI definitely don't think anything crazy but most of the models have this basically as a tropical storm and I'm saying a higher end Cat 1 is a possibility. These storms the last 5 years have shown that once it's in the Gulf they want to be stronger than what models showed.
40/80Northwestern Caribbean Sea and eastern Gulf of Mexico (AL93):
Satellite images indicate that the area of low pressure over the
northwestern Caribbean Sea is gradually becoming better organized,
with increasing thunderstorm activity and a better-defined
low-level circulation. Environmental conditions appear conducive
for further development during the next several days, and a
tropical depression is likely to form late this weekend or early
next week while it moves generally northward over the eastern Gulf
of Mexico. Interests in the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico, western
Cuba, and Florida should monitor the progress of this system.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...40 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...80 percent.
Idk, Ian kept on adjusting east last year. At one point in the medium range it was a big bend landfall. I'm unsure our well known winter axioms translate into the summer that cleanly
Much like this system, I am also a fan of hanging around Cancun for a couple of days not having my act together at all! Don't really see much here unless it can hit the Yucatan Channel with a head of steam and a pressure around 1001-1003ish
Probably right.
Yep! That would likely bring flooding to the Blue Ridge, depending on forward movement, with the moist S/SE flow. Will be interesting to trackNot really a crazy solution with the models wanting to hang back that weakness/weak ULL over Texas.
It's ironic but last night I watched part of a documentary about the Great Flood of 1916 in Western North Carolina on PBS. One spot in the mountains got over 24 inches of rain in 24 hours. The French Broad River at one time was twenty feet above flood stage. That flood killed hundreds of people and devastated the economy in that part of the state. The Great Flood of 1916 was caused by two hurricanes that cut through the panhandle of Florida just weeks apart in July of that year. The tropical disturbance that everyone has its eye on could take a similar track and cause major issues if it develops to its full potential.Yep!

Euro has it stuck off the coast for quite a bit. Hopefully it does a DianaProbably right.
Quite the trend on the eps. The inland track is getting more favored with a hard right hook at the endView attachment 136437
There's too much of a weakness for it to get left behind it'll ride the western edge of the Atlantic STR. As of right now I think the more possible but crazy random solution would be for it to round the ridge in the Atlantic and try to turn back SEWhat if the trough leaves it over the loop current for days?
