@NicoDelon i'm not sure what to make of those

predicted NO

@Will58c3 Do you see a lot of models forecasting a cat 5?

predicted NO

@AviS Yup. Incredible escalation!

@NicoDelon People knew. I think ensemble forecasts predicted.

predicted NO

@Will58c3 No. That’s not how it works. When I posted, few models forecasted it, then they all updated based on the evidence. You can see the updates to the models moving fairly quickly over the course of two days. No one ‘knew’.

@NicoDelon not 'knew' but they had better estimates than those spaghetti graphs e.g. accuweather was predicting a category 5. twitter had many meteorologists predicting a category 5.

predicted NO

@Will58c3 Who are ‘they’? Where do you think Accuweather sources its ‘predictions’?

@NicoDelon Listen bub. I'm ranked 25 silver I don't need to explain myself to the likes of you. just kidding.

Changing topics, you wouldn't happen to know if/how often NOAA would reclassify hurricane strength after the fact. Like with respect to Idalia, could they downgrade it to a category 3?

predicted NO

@Will58c3 😂

The NHC releases a report in April/May. That’s where they reclassified Ian as a 5 (before landfall). So that’s when I would expect a potential reclassification to be made public.

@NicoDelon wow thanks
