Yesterday afternoon and evening it seemed like it was trending a bit more south and east. The models have obviously changed their thinking on that

Models have been struggling with the "handing off" of the storm between the weakening ridge across the SW US and the ridge off FL. The further W solutions make more sense to me with the ridge in the SW being dominant until the storm is well inland...the anticyclonic flow should keep it from drifting E until it weakens and the SE ridge amplifies a bit. I'd say odds of direct impacts from this system across our region are pretty high at this point...potentially significant. GFS shows that well. The weakness in the ridge is certainly over MO with the ridging strengthening both across the SW and the SE in the later frames. If this GFS is accurate with the pattern it should just work it's way north until it gets picked up by the westerlies .

12Z UKMET came in a bit to the east, but it's still outside the NHC cone to the west. It's also a bit more tame with precipitation at least in MO. There's still widespread 1" amounts in our area.

Figured I would check in here and give you all an update from Gulf Shores, AL - This is “just” a tropical storm and coming from someone who has loved severe weather my whole life, this is a completely different ball game. If you have never experienced a tropical storm warning before - its impressive. This is a first for me and it gives me a new appreciation for these storms.

Having lived in South Carolina back in the 80’s I have seen a few hurricanes..... best way to describe them is about a 10 hour severe thunderstorm on steroids lol

Models are looking hot next week after whatever is left of Barry clears out. ECM/GFS build a 22-25C 850mb thermal ridge into our area around midweek.

Going to be interesting to see how far west and north Barry's heaviest rain bands shift before they actually make it to the mid-Mississippi and lower Missouri River valleys.

As the heat builds next week... this sets up the potential derecho pattern. Something to watch as we move into next weekend.

Going to be interesting to see how far west and north Barry's heaviest rain bands shift before they actually make it to the mid-Mississippi and lower Missouri River valleys. EURO shifted further W with this morning's run which brings the heavier rains closer to the heart of the region. I don't expect rainfall amounts to be excessive around here though...the slow movement of the system will allow it to "rain out" before it arrives and there's really no boundary in place to provide focused moisture convergence and lift.

GFS has been pretty persistent with the idea of a transient jet pattern, so thankfully it doesn't look like the heat sticks around too terribly long. End of the month signals look fairly comfortable -- looks similar to what we saw over the past few days.
