Vacation??? Should not be until December 1st this year lol! I have a feeling we will hear from him shortly.....
Problem is that 2020 means no rest for the meteorologists. We'll be having these hybrid canes in December with cold rain and wintry mixes getting thrown into the mess at the rate this year's been going for us.

TD 28 going nowhere fast. Other boards thinking a center is more SE than what the NHC is seeing. I believe recon is heading out early morning. If indeed center is more SE, could very well be a much different track.
More support as to why there should be no 5 day cone. With social media enhancing communication, 3 day cone is plenty.

That’s like the 20th time this season New Orleans has been on or just to the east of the 5 day track with “greater than usual uncertainty”. I totally agree on not having a 5-day cone and track.

Just like with every other storm this year, we are in the formative stages so you can’t focus on Day 3-5 track point. The cone is good, center points not so much.
Interesting to note, 6Z models are catching on. For the first time the GFS actually shows a hurricane, the new HWRF/HMON coming out now. Both send this isn’t Yucatán while before they all were much farther east. See how these short term trends as the storm is reorganizing farther south make a huge difference.
These reformations of the storm further south have always resulted in a track going further west, we will see if this will be the case again with Zeta.
6z gfs actually shifted East to the panhandle. Chatter on the streets is that not only is the center relocation south but also somewhat East which would move Zeta more East as the gfs is showing.
We can say ignore the center line and just look at the cone until we are blue in the face but I think it’s almost impossible for people (who are not Mets) to do. Trash the 5 day cone!

That chatter on the streets, which I know where it is coming from, is wishcasting, there's going to be big ridge moving over FL over the next couple days that will keep Zeta from going that far east.

Zack Fradella: Yea, Lezak had a paper peer reviewed and published a year or so ago.
Nov 5, 2022 9:03:24 GMT -6
stormydds: Thanks for your response. I felt that is the case. that's too bad. Has there been any peer reviewed papers on the LRC hypothesis?
Nov 4, 2022 14:01:51 GMT -6
Zack Fradella: Not sure, the LRC is something that takes a lot of work to follow and keep up with. It's not as easy as looking at the parameters and making a forecast. This deters many from even giving it a chance. Also, there is some doubt from the weather world.
Nov 4, 2022 3:38:49 GMT -6
stormydds: Zack, a friend had a meeting in Lafayette which Rob Perillo spoke.He asked him why the LRC is not used to forecast hurricanes by NOAA.His answer was that Lezak won't share the info.I saw the podcast you and David made with Gary.He seemed open.What gives?

PinkFreud - Nola FQ: Been unblocked. Dylan says that the station took major damage, so no idea when they'll even be able to stream again, or be on the air. Hopefully, they will at least let their employees deal with their own property issues!

PinkFreud - Nola FQ: According to another met on twitter, the kitten was rescued by a producer who's adopting it. Of course that hasn't stopped the angry mob, with torches and pitchforks, who are insisting that it's a lie.

nolachic: Pink - he's probably blocking people he doesn't personally know to keep his cell charged and to get his head straight, and I'm sure he is beyond exhausted.

SKYSUMMIT: I sent him a message yesterday as well, but he hasn't seen it.

PinkFreud - Nola FQ: Oh hell, I meant for that to be a message!

PinkFreud - Nola FQ: Dylan is taking a beating on Twitter. I just tried to send him a message of support, since we've been following each other for years, and HE BLOCKED ME!!!!!! Somebody who can get to him needs to do so, pronto!!! I'm very worried about him.
