Michael seems to be performing as expected just a tad stronger. Expect winds and some ran as well as some higher waters for the area. As always things can happen so keep your eyes open.

Michael got strong fast and currently the Hurricane Hunters found winds of 50kts. Expect Michael to continue on this present track and my Monday Night / Tuesday morning he will hit hurricane strength. Currently all models have him making landfall anywhere from the Mississippi Coast to the Big Bend area as a Cat 1 or 2. The entire Northern Gulf needs to to keep and eye because it should not be as strong as it is, and yet he is already 10kts higher than forecast. With as much wind shear to the this is surprising to me.

So Florence could become a ball buster for the East Coast. Right now it’s still suffering because of some wind shear aloft, but the shear should decrease, the water temp is warmer and so would expect some rapid intensification over the next few days. The point of landfall will hinge on a mid-level ridge expected to form as a low pushes across the Western States. Florence could be beast and bring catastrophic weather to the Mid Atlantic states. Interests in that area need to be watching this storm like a hawk.

On to TD 9 or Isaac. Isaac is being battered by wind shear and a fluctuating ridge to the N holding it down. The ridge has weakened some and so Isaac is making a slight jog NW. Also affecting Isaac is some dry air embedded in the storm. Even with all these fact Isaac is still holding together. Over the next 4-5 days don’t expect much to happen, Isaac will fluctuate and go through cycles, but after 5 days it should have low shear, hot waters and a decrease in dry air.

Long range models have it making landfall from Central America as a low to wandering out into the Atlantic. The ridge discussed with Florence and its position will play a big role in what Isaac does as will the shear in the Caribbean that has been a factor all season.

TS Gordon is looking ragged, but have some solid outflow. When the storm gets over the warmer waters of the Gulf and a strong Anti-Cyclonic flow above the storm it has the chance to because a weak hurricane before landfall in the Central Gulf. Keep an eye out for more rain as the night goes on and some breezy weather.
