Tropical Major Hurricane Laura

The 18z Euro which only goes out to 90 hours is much stronger with a pressure in the 980s(again this is well before landfall) it's also much further south closer to Cuba than Florida

Oh and it's stronger than the GFS at that timeframe which landfalled in the 960s

Remember when the Euro had a wave???

What matters is going to be seeing how intact this is when it enters the gulf assuming it misses major land interaction with Cuba/Hispaniola. If it hasn't degenerated, from things I've read, I'd be very concerned regardless if I were on the gulf coast. May not be a 4/5 (wouldn't bet on one), but could see a dangerous storm.

The higher intensity models do have this beginning to strengthen tomorrow though.
 
The HWRF may be wrong here but it did win the 2017 season. I'll give it one thing it's been consistent

Interesting to see the HMON even stronger
It has been extremely consistent....it will be interesting to see how it verifys......I remember clearly everyone ignoring it with Michael and it more than verified.....

Blind squirrel finds a nut every once in a while, but that’s just my opinion. Very well could verify

Yeah I'm definitely getting more intrigued since it's getting more data now. I fully thought it would back off by now and the fact it hasn't is definitely an issue. Yeah it looks like crap today but it's never really done anything til Sunday on approach to the Keys anyway. The other part is now the other models are trending stronger... Look at the Euro and GFS now compared to yesterday

ITS BECAUSE ITS GETTING INTO THAT JET FUEL CALLED THE GULF THAT HAS NOT BEEN DISTURBED
 
I wonder if we’ll see a center relocation closer to the better convention.

So we've gone from way east of me to where I was more focused on 14 to possibly completely south of me like Hanna in a day lol ?

Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings

Honestly I'm guessing if these trends don't stop we're going to be at it plowing into those islands that kill storms tomorrow.

But who knows.
