I noticed yesterday the models were dry for us and the CPC forecast was wet for us. Then today the models turned wetter and the CPC forecast turned drier. Makes zero sense :lol:

Cpv17 i figure it most be the ensembles they are looking at, definitely is head scratching though😂😂, though intriguing to see the euro starts to hint at a cut off upper low at the end of its run, we know what those can do
I also think the CPC has trended drier simply because they want to see if the global models are going to consistently be wet like todays runs or if they are going to back off to a more dry solution

Interesting to see the GFS is trying to develop what may be a cut off upper low out in the desert SW in the medium range, that could make things interesting going forward

Mid to late first week of May is looking pretty interesting, for now anyway.

May 10-17. Looks like a major low blasting across the Midwest with The Last FROPA of the season digging hard and lifting some hot, humid air: EFS, GEFS, GEPS Ensembles have all bought into mega rain.

And the 00z euro Kicks off the unofficial start of hurricane season with a weak system approaching the mississippi delta at hour 240, let the long nights of model watching and ridiculous GFS fantasy runs commence!😄😂😂

There’s some ensemble support from both the GFS and Euro but it’s a really weak signal for now.

There will be plenty of El Niño shear. Lots of lemonade (weak systems wandering inland) to keep our grass and trees happy for a change this summer. Fingers crossed.

DoctorMu for the most part their should be, but i do think their will be a window of opportunity for development where the shear isnt high, i wouldnt mind a couple of weakt sloppy systems to keep the grass green but i definitely dont want a hurricane either, just gotta watch it

Shear is rockin' already in the GOM and Caribbean.

Weaksauce systems and unfocused rain, FTW. Fingers crossed.

we will see, as they say hope for the best but prepare for the worst, all it takes is one tropical disturbance to get into a pocket of lower shear and dry air and its game on, its just a matter of who gets hit, but thats in the august- october timeframe, seems like june-july are almost always dead months with the occasional homegrown system

It’s normal for the shear maps to look like that this time of the year.
