Also for all the eastward tug the GFS has shown the 12Z ensemble swings back out over the gulf, making the 12z operational run more of an outlier.
We've got more swings than a kindergarten playground here.

Most likely not, but never say never when a system is so far out there. It’ll all depend on the placement and strength of the ridge.

And right on cue, climatology wise the average date for the 2nd North Atlantic Hurricane of the season is August 28th.

Every run is getting more and more west. Starting to smell like Ike (hopefully not)

Ridge looks stronger on the 12Z Euro than the 00Z
I said all along this will be a south Florida storm and then it’s anyones guess after that. Ukmet and ICON have had a good handle on this so far. I could even see Dorian going through the Straits.

I could see this getting as close to lousiana
Louisiana, especially New Orleans seems likely right now.

Euro turning it towards MS/AL/Fl Panhandle. Some of the 12z runs have a very similar look to the track of Andrew & Katrina(not saying that's what Dorian will be..)
That 12z euro run has my attention that's one hell of a shift to the west.
One thing to keep in mind regarding this becoming an issue for Texas is that Texas is literally at the end of the line here. Everything would have to set up "perfectly" to get the storm to track this far west. Getting into September with troughs and fronts being a little more frequent this is an unlikely scenario. Not Impossible of course, but unlikely.

I get your point but tropical systems don't always follow climatology.sau27 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 28, 2019 2:12 pm One thing to keep in mind regarding this becoming an issue for Texas is that Texas is literally at the end of the line here.

The 12z GFS ensembles are now split between the fla panhandle and c la.
