Barbados is going to see a hurricane without any hurricane watches or warnings issued. Barbados isn't even in the eye wall.

Yep, this has to be a hurricane. At the very least a 70mph TS

Well the intensity forecast is clearly out the window from some of these models

Pros on TWC saying GFS is way better with hurricane tracks, and was better last year as well

Flight Level TS Winds extending about 200 Miles to the NW of the COC.
Now 80 MPH Flight Level Gusts measured 150 Miles from the COC. This is nuts.

To me, it's already looking more and more like the GFS/hurricane models will be right here.
Yeah I’m not surprised at all .. Gfs still hasn’t backed down either .. it’s time for the euro to play catch up per usual in the tropical season. Euro may be good overall but it has nothing on on the American models when it comes to tropical weather
Now… is the satellite presentation perfect? Nope .. easily seeing dry air problems and of course it’s moving at break neck speed so it’s bound to be sloppy but it’s got good outflow channels and has good thunderstorm intensity all around helping support the core through the tough journey … another case of rapid intensification

Well that escalated quickly. Wondering how the models are going to respond to the jump to hurricane strength.

Even their special just out has zero strengthening. It's still a TS near the US
Yeah basically showing it has peaked..... ok, seems odd for an agency that has been naming any cluster of precip with rotation a TC lately haha
