Re: JUNE 2018: Watching The Tropics/Heavy Rainfall Possible
I agree that the satellite presentation this morning is impressive and honestly a little bit eyebrow raising… I suspect if this convection persists through 2 PM Eastern time ( assuming it’s not purely nocturnal convection ), we will see at least a 40% hatch area in the NHC update. Of course, doing t...

Re: JUNE 2018: Watching The Tropics/Heavy Rainfall Possible
How many inches? Got your attention. If consensus models (averaged separate models) like ICON (see tropicaltidbits.com) are even remotely accurate, the rainfall timing will change by 24hrs delay (M-T instead of S-M) plus totals would go up significantly. Will be interesting to track training potenti...

Re: JUNE 2018: Watching The Tropics/Heavy Rainfall Possible
Hey y'all, just checkin' in. All possibilities on the table. 12z GFS closes off weak low near Brownsville. Even a tiny close-off of pressures could focus rain bands, near wherever that center approaches shore. Low level jet comes into play, and more... So many options still on the table... this is o...

Re: April 2018- Severe Storms Possible on Tuesday
TEGNA WX Earth Design.png How about that gravity wave set traversing Texas from north to south?? Interesting to see on GOES 16 WV in its interaction with the shortwave coming out of Mexico at this time! (That shortwave I think may be a little punchier than models had indicated for much of the day. ...

Re: April 2018- Severe Storms Possible on Tuesday
What's up, guys. Watching this shortwave being ejected into Texas from Mexico, where there's very little upper level data for the models to process. It may provide, "unexpected" energy and dynamics for the late evening storms. Not sure if models are advertising this as much as it may become.... As o...

Re: Poor forecasting day after frontal passage
Many times, as was mentioned, the daytime high comes at midnight or 12:01am, then it falls all day so by afternoon it's 30 degrees colder than the recorded, "daytime high" graphic shows. Arctic air masses are also -- as has been mentioned -- notoriously under forecast by the models due to their shal...
