Yeah but that is still all relative.....its above normal off NE but still colder than needed to support a tropical system...
 
Recon going to investigate Henri tomorrow.

KLAL AT 20/2000Z AND 21/0800Z.
 
Interesting to note the Hurricane models
HMON 12z follows suit in hitting Long Island .. but the storm is significantly weak
HWRF 12z also follows with a Long Island hit but definitely stronger but significantly weakening upon arrival
 
Yeah but that is still all relative.....its above normal off NE but still colder than needed to support a tropical system...

I think upper level dynamics will give Henri an extra kick if the GFS solution comes to fruition. 200Mb charts shows a negatively tilted trough through the Carolinas. Makes for an interesting setup.
 
...HENRI ALMOST A HURRICANE...
...INTERESTS IN THE NORTHEASTERN U.S. SHOULD MONITOR ITS PROGRESS...


SUMMARY OF 500 PM AST...2100 UTC...INFORMATION
----------------------------------------------
LOCATION...29.9N 67.6W
ABOUT 235 MI...375 KM SW OF BERMUDA
ABOUT 790 MI...1275 KM S OF NANTUCKET MASSACHUSETTS
MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...70 MPH...110 KM/H
PRESENT MOVEMENT...W OR 265 DEGREES AT 9 MPH...15 KM/H
MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...995 MB...29.39 INCHES

The models continue their westward
shift, and the NHC track forecast has again been adjusted in that
direction and no longer shows a northeastward motion out to sea. In
particular, the westward adjustment at day 5 was a sizable 150
miles, and even with this shift the NHC forecast is still a little
to the east of some of the consensus aids.
NOAA Gulfstream IV
missions and special weather balloon soundings have been scheduled,
and it is hoped that this additional data will help the models
handle the evolving steering pattern. Given the uncertainty in the
longer range track forecast, users should be prepared for additional
adjustments to the NHC track prediction in future forecast cycles.
 
Like that they are going to be doing special balloon launches and starting the GIV missions. This will be the most interesting time for any major shifts in the models.
