Tropical Hurricane Francine

Latest 06z runs bring this further south and east of Memphis. Let’s see what she does!

Watches could be
required for portions of the western Gulf coast later today or
tonight.

12Z GFS is quite aggressive. Heads up La. peeps.

Any of yall believe I may be looking at Tornado Watches close by with this track?

No doubt and heavy rain, but not too prolonged so flooding should be isolated.

Looks like Recon missions have started for Invest 91L.

12Z UKMET: similar C LA landfall location/timing (PM of 9/11) to 0Z run but stronger at 990 mb vs 996 mb. (Winds at landfall of 40 knots too light imo due to model bias this far out.) Also, this run then goes NNE up Miss River to Memphis instead of NE to far E TN:

I’ll say one thing, all of Alabama has to watch for tornadoes on the GFS. Very impressive wind shear.

12Z Euro: much stronger, quicker, and further E at landfall than prior runs with 978 mb H at late Wed evening C LA landfall, similar location/timing to 12Z UKMET. It then like the UK turns NNE up/near the Miss River.

I'm keeping a close eye on this invest from southern LA, believe me! We've had a relatively quiet season thus far, but as history has shown, it only takes one nasty storm to make the season an infamous one.

That's a very low populated area.

Ironically, if this were to hit the US as a H and based on the model consensus timing, it would be the earliest 3rd H hit on the CONUS since way back in 2005! Only 10 of 173 years since 1851 (6%) would have had an earlier 3rd H hit with only 2 of those during the internet era. They are 2005, 2004, 1985, 1934, 1933, 1916, 1893, 1886, 1879, and 1871. So, in this way at least, not at all a quiet season so far.

Edit: Oops, I somehow left off 2020, which had its 3rd H landfall on LA on 8/27 (Ida). So, it hasn’t been since 2005. Revises it from 10 to 11 of the 173 years (still 6%) with #3 before the expected upcoming LA landfall.

This is getting very interesting
