The storm track NOAA have for Earl is all wrong, IMO. Don't wait for the sudden, sharp turn north like they were forecasting Tuesday. But hey, they are the experts, I just think they're wrong.

Bohemian, if you'll check out the sat loop (link below) and click the "Trop pts" you can see the movement in relation to the NHC projections. It's been tracking right along the points since early yesterday.

Yeah, definitely might be a Gloria repeat. Anyone headed to the store for preps? If so, might want to post up what you see disappearing from the shelves.

Well everything is ordered and I pick it up from Lowes tomorrow evening. They are predicting 30-50 mph winds around here which will not cause me to board up the windows if that plays out but it will be good to measure and have everything cut and ready should Hurricane Karl come barrelling up the Potomac. smiley

Hey Cross, I would love to get together for coffee. Sept is my busiest month with work, but it should calm down by the last week of Sept.

But what if we don't make it through the storms?????

Landshark--just got back from the store. Water and bread getting picked over, but nothing crazy (yet).

It appears Fiona is catching up to Earl.

Will Earl and Fiona merge ?

If so, what happens then ?

The models are still tracking East, and that cold front out West is making for an interesting scenario.

But the eye wall replacement cycles tend to shift the track a little more West than what the models predict, and that needs to be addressed.

Please. Not until we get a hurricane Karl. If I have to go through it at least that would have a level of humor to it.

That would be just too ****ing classic.

Especially if it laid waste DC, then went back offshore and nailed Wall Street.

You just may get your wish.

Earl/Fiona, a marriage made in heaven ?

They'd be restoring a lot more than "honor", that's for sure!

There's an interesting scenario that's said to be possible when two tropical systems merge, in that they could potentially begin rotating around a single axis - I think there's a historical example of that, but I'll have to research it. But in my mind, the two storms would almost certainly have to be of similar strength. Now THAT would throw a wrench into the gears!

All that said, I'm kind of wondering if that front is going to move fast enough to produce the eastward hook everyone's expecting.

Earlier today the weather channel said the jet stream dipping so far south
is unusual this time of year. All the weather systems are set up to steer
the hurricane[s] right up the east coast.

You folks up there in the coastal areas of Pamlico and Albemarle sound should be concerned with flooding and going over evac plans.

I gotta see this in the morning, but Fiona would merge into Earl essentially and become a bigger single storm, feeding off her. It's happened before. It's not good news that Earl is picking up Fiona, and one they did not predict.

Another type of interaction that can occur between tropical cyclones is the Fujiwhara Effect. In the Fujiwhara Effect, two tropical cyclones can alter each other and/or become absorbed by the stronger of the two hurricanes. Multiple examples of the Fujiwhara Effect show how hurricane, typhoon, and tropical storm paths can be altered by their interactions with each other.
