As others have posted, it’s too early to focus on the details of any particular model run. A lot will change over the next week that just can’t be resolved by the models this far out.
I’d advise folks to pay attention to our Senior Members and Pro-Mets for reliable information

The 12z Euro has the tropical disturbance getting into the BOC by this sunday/ monday, thats sooner than the GFS or other models, thats something to watch and see if this occurs
The EPS definitely looks concerning for the western Gulf.

Oh yeah that’s definitely concerning, next week is going to be interesting for sure, we got alot to watch
Actually, that's not 'concerning' considering there's 50 ensemble members....
For those that aren’t aware (and I wasn’t aware of this for the longest time) , the Euro model has 51 ensemble members that make up the EPS while the GFS model has 21 ensemble members that make up the GEFS. I’ve been following the weather closely for over 10 years now and I just recently learned that maybe 2 or 3 years ago. I feel like it’s good to educate everyone on that.
For a potential system? Somewhat, no disagreement there. But even then the ensembles are having issues with an eventual epac focus, a split or a BoC genesis. Standard op with these gyre systems.

Well whatever happens regardless their is one thing that is pretty clear, if this does end up developing in the BOC it is going to be a western gulf threat, if that is Mexico, Louisiana or Texas , that still is to be determined
The GFS now has 31 members after the recent upgrade (v.12.0) I've mentioned previously.Cpv17 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 10, 2021 5:25 pm For those that aren’t aware (and I wasn’t aware of this for the longest time) , the Euro model has 51 ensemble members that make up the EPS while the GFS model has 21 ensemble members that make up the GEFS.

Sweet.

Yeah between the operational upgrade in March and the ensemble upgrade the change was significant and substantial. Testing showed a much better hit on genesis. So those first few potential storms are important.Cpv17 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 10, 2021 5:36 pmSweet.

One knock though between the two big guns is with the GFS running four times a day as opposed to two like the euro it has more opportunities to be 'wrong.' So far it's been inline with what the euro is showing outside of a few runs and even then it wasn't by much.

18z GFS run has a weak tropical storm slowly heading north and then stalls it somewhere along the middle texas coast

No. No. No. No. No
18z GFS is a typical June sloppy sheared ts with most of the convection well east of the center.

Yeah no doubt I would agree with the western gulf
When would there be landfall if it forms and heads to the middle to upper Texas coast.
