Former Invest 92L Carolinas

Thread for Invest 92L.

 

[Taylor Campbell]

We are going to have to watch this one closely as it looks to have the best shot at a US landfall.

0z CMC has a significant hurricane into the FL Panhandle at 240 hours

UKMET is almost a hurricane at 144 hours entering the Bahamas on a track towards S FL/Gulf

This *may* get interesting

 

[Taylor Campbell]

The CMC forecast strengthening in an environment characterized by unfavorably dry air, and shear. That's baloney! Just maybe depending on how well it holds up similar to 99L that eventually became Gert, it could develop when it gets closer to the U.S. Noted on some CMC, EURO, and GFS ensembles.

We'll see how 92L handles this shear overnight.

Now code red. Development up to 70%

The gulf? Uh...I'm no expert, but only one of those model tracks actually approaches the gulf...what am I missing?

Just one model showing a Gulf impact out of several that curve up the east coast. i.e., it is an outlier. Obviously things could change and JP qualifies his statement by saying "less likely"(unlike one of his competitors who likes to make definitive statements on things like this many days ahead of time).

Invest 92L is back in the Atlantic and is now upgraded to Potential Tropical Cyclone Ten. Expected to become Irma soon.
