My question is this... what effect would a tropical storm in the western Gulf have on a hurricane in the eastern Gulf?? By no means is it guaranteed that scenario plays out, but the models have been hinting at today. I would assume the storm in the eastern Gulf would have done steering influence on the hurricane.

Think of spinning two tops. As they interact they typically slow down. Same would occur with two storms. The weaker of the two would probably weaken the most but we will see because this don’t happen often

I would lean toward the models don't have adequate variables to address the issue because no one can remember this scenario ever playing out in real life.
 
More good news allowing us to rest a little easier at least for now (although there's still plenty of uncertainty as a lot depends on the track and TD 14):

1. 12Z Para has it merely an appendage of TD 14 once in the Gulf.
2. 18Z GEFS by far the quietest vs recent runs.
 
Okay, so allow me to play the "devil's advocate" for a minute. I read back and noticed some back and fourths between some of our members. Mostly about how some people have this illusion that people hope for the worse when it comes to natural disasters. I don't think that is the case, at all. Look, we're all-weather enthusiast, does that mean we want a loss of property and life? No, we just like weather, in general. That includes disasters. Why do you think we all get excited and flood the forums during tornado outbreaks, ice storms, floods, and every now and then, winter storms? They are can be equally as devastating. No one here wishes ill will on anyone. So, let's tone down the "holier than thou" attitudes. Anyway, regarding the storm, it would be nice to see some action. I would love to say, I am chasing from my backyard as opposed to having to drive hundreds of miles to see some action. This storm could very well impact a large portion of us, so let's sit back, relax, and let mother nature do her thing!
 
I don't know what it is going to do, imo, models tend to trend east with the storm over timing for landfall because they can't nail the weather pattern down, way too far out to make any prediction, nhcs cone could lead to an out to see or gom solution, its just something to watch, way too early to make any kind of prediction but i would say anywhere from la the the ob needs to watch it, models will change drastically over time, lets just see what it does instead of making predictions, would i like to see effects from it with wind and all yea, but nothing to cause life and property to be lost, as was mentioned in a previous post, lets all just see by sunday what happens with modeling, not complaining but just saying way to early to make any type of landfall "guess", ill keep reading yalls post
 
All hail the earlier maligned King! Its Happy Hour version is once again a reason to be happy with it having only a very weak system.
So, the Euro/GFS overall weak solutions may end up the best despite it missing it getting TD status already.
Also, all hail Levi, who was quite bearish for today and the next couple hope of days in his excellent video of last evening.
