Tropical Tropical Storm Barry

is it just me or is the center abt to make landfall

It may just be a very strong vort but it sure looks like the larger circulation is following it.View attachment 21062
Last couple of frames now looks like that strong vort in the center is turning west around the broader circulation.... it's a mess and will probably look better once on land and it starts to fill in.

But yeah it certainly looks very close to landfall
 
I know it's the NAM and it's junk, especially with TC, but it's interesting how it shows the center doing a little loop just offshore, almost like it is showing the main center being looped around by the broader circulation and I swear almost looks like it's trying to do that now

I agree.....it pushes the intensity escalation to after midnight tonight.
 
Wow just missed landfall with llc. Time to loop back around and get under MLC/Blob tonight for one more shot I suppose. Never seen this before
 
Uhhh, I think swimming here is a bad idea:

It's weird. It's been a mix of sun and clouds and a little breezy so far today. It almost feels pleasant. We did get a little rain earlier but not much. Hard to believe the center of Barry is not far off the coast right now.

Radar becoming very useful. You can see the small vort in the larger circulation.

Notice how small the broad circulation has become.

You can literally watch showers popping up tightening that core.

Very cool and rare opportunity to see a storm organize on radar
