Tropical TS Jerry

Jerry sure looks like he is moving more west than north pretty much right down 15N...though it is admittedly hard to be sure where his true "center" is.....

The 8 PM NHC location (at 15.2 N) is right on track with the 0.2 N x 0.7 W move from 5 PM. So, he, indeed, is moving much more west than north but that is what it is supposed to do.

I went through Bertha, Fran, Floyd, Irene...no power after Floyd for a week, Irene caused the house to have to be reshingled, I am well versed with hurricanes and the aftermath....I cant do anything to change the outcome...all I can do is be ready and then witness the raw power of mother nature in a way that most people never do....

It’s definitely something I wanna experience, but don’t wanna experience, idk lol, but I think I’ll go easily with the rain part, because it’s definitely a issue right now

Its awesome, and humbling, and I get a rush off it for sure, and honestly the only time I was ever worried was when Fran peaked......we were not expecting gust to the 100-110 mph range and it was middle of the night, power was out everywhere and the sky was a constant flash of green as transformer popped.....and wind was ripping huge trees down all over....you couldn't see it happening but you could hear and feel them fall and smell all the fresh broken limbs and trees.....at one point the carport was lifting up about 6" and we thought it was going to go ( because you know we were outside on the porch which was protected from the wind ) and it was so loud, I mean 70-80 mph gust are rough but for a hr or so there in Fran the winds probably never went below 50-60 mph and then every couple of mins you would hear these monster 90-110 mph gust coming for a solid 10-20 secs before they hit and then they would blast you for 10-20 secs and it would back off to 50-60 and start the whole cycle over with the big gust being 3-4 mins apart it was crazy how it worked like that.......but again wind junkie so 10/10 would do it again, but in the daylight lol... that really is about as bad as I would want to experience, having seen that I know anything beyond that would be no good and not something I would want to go through.

You would be in the perfect spot for Hugo! You could’ve seen atleast 90 MPH gusts and sustained 50-70! I did in Gastonia at the time!
 
Interestingly, the 18Z Euro ens 144, the end of the short 18Z, is actually quite a bit more active in the SW sector than the relatively quiet 12Z’s 150. The problem with this 18Z run, however, is that it doesn’t go out far enough to see how many of those SW members actually hit the CONUS. I suspect though that there’d be a good number more than the handful that are on the 12Z.


Actually, no recent EPS run had a single member hit that soon. The 0Z EPS will be more informative.

Right on ... and do you want it again? Probably/obviously not, which was the whole point here, I think ... just some folks seem to revel in other folks' hurt ... and 'Canes hurt up, down and sideways (mostly the latter ...) ... ;)

Yes but at the end of the day it makes no difference if I revel in a hurricane or not or cheer one on or not. It makes no difference as to whether it impacts me or not . Now when one does just like down east said you best believe my happy ass gon be making the best out of the moment . Then questioning why i even like it after it’s gone and there’s no power or WiFi to view southernwx :eek:

Can you post what they looked like at the end of their run?

I just tried to do it, but something’s messed up. I now can’t load pics from my phone for some reason. I wonder if something’s wrong with the site. Or maybe my phone is screwed up.
 
Ok, I cleared my cache & now it is working.
First, here’s 18Z 144:

Now, here’s the much quieter 12Z 150:

Jerry not looking fantastic on sat this morning but the last microwave pass is not horrible and recon should find him almost a hurricane if not already....
 
Only ~6 of the 51 (12%) 6Z EPS members are at hour 144 (end of run) in a position based on movement then to be a CONUS threat (mainly FL/Gulf). The 0Z had about the same number actually hit the CONUS, all FL/Gulf. For now, I’m sticking with 90% chance of no CONUS threat.E9C08E0C-F1A0-4ED4-96CA-3274B738E050.png
 
I'm remembering that Barry didn't look the best either.

but whew, while Jerry has a good shot of getting there at looking better, what I see right now definitely looks like crap. There probably is support in recon though.
