But there is suppost to be plenty of windshear were it is, it is not going to hit any land and it will die very soon!!!

Why is there an ad telling me to download before continuing? Im just checking the PTC-5 and it poped up. I was still able to skip it, but what if i accidentally clicked/tapped on it, then what could possibly happen to me? That was rather concerning, and it would be nice if there are answers to this
I once clicked on it thinking it was an actual download button. It took me to a gaming website, but sometimes I got a possible scamming website so just avoid clicking on those buttons.

Can u guys list factors that can affect a tropical cyclone’s intensity?

I Toataly underestimated Ernesto It is 90 Mph
I’m supprized with Hurricane Ernesto
two new potential invests in WPAC (not the current ones) in the open seas
how much does the website earn from ads?
both of the storms are sheared heavily
ight im gonna try to list all of the conditions that can affect a tropical cyclone:
I must have missed something that I dont know, so that would be nice if someone can fix or add more. thanks
And the important one: Coriolis effect
And the Coriolis Force
Is it just me or does Typhoon Ampil looks like Typhoon Wutip of 2019 just rotated 90 degrees clockwise
Ernesto has a huge eye forming
now Ampil is an annular typhoon
Ampil now does look like Dorian of the 2019 after stalling: weak convection and banding, ragged eye
also, Ernesto is facing some real wind shear,
do note that usually the high wind shear value is caused by the TS’s outflow, that tricks u into thinking the conditions are unfavorable
In the force-13 video it says ernesto will wweaken and head south east and dieout.
Ok, so I think I know ernestos path, it is likely to flow more eastern and weaken along the way, might not even become a hurricane!
Ernesto’s outflow is doing really well if you pay close attention, which is worrying yet fascinating
( equatorward + poleward flow along side)
That outflow is creating a zone of low shear over its core, high shear everywhere else
But there is suppost to be plenty of windshear were it is, it is not going to hit any land and it will die very soon!!!

Can u guys list factors that can affect a tropical cyclone’s intensity?
1) Sea surface temperatures
2) Wind shear
3) Mid level humidity
4) Instability
Here is another wind shear map
Wow
F13 noted this in their bulletin last night. Southern Hemisphere activity in August????
i did think tropical storm Fabio was dissipating because of the Fujiwhara and also it was evident that it was weakening due to the satellite imagery
