TROPICAL STORM CLAUDETTE Discussion Thread

Update!

Not about precip but track. My memory sucks, but don’t I remember the ICON doing a decent job on several storms last year? Or is this just a case of a broken clock being right twice a day?

Rain totals as shown by the Pivotal, for the 00z GFS


and the 06z GFS

92L is going to surprise a lot of people that's all I'm saying

I love this board. The two posts above cracked me up lol!

Nobody knows for sure but if I were to put money one way or another, my money would be on very, very little over a widespread area. I think whatever happens is going to be very localized somewhere.

Summary of models? What we know right now?

Formation: not likely until Thursday/ Friday

Intensity: possibly TS

Landfall of some center: somewhere on Louisiana coast likely

Impacts: someone from central La to Pensacola get 7-10 inches of rain, perhaps TS winds, outside chance of Hurricane gusts.

Time Period: Saturday morning through Sunday evening

chime in with where I might be wrong, try not to use gut, follow the science lol.

I know the weather is starting Friday, but is it mostly going to be light rain until Saturday? We have plans on Friday night, so I was just curious about driving.
