Historian #Simon #Schama:

#British #Jews feel unsafe & history shows #Gaza isn’t a genocide.

"The language of genocide is being misapplied to Gaza &
that #historical #ignorance, social media & political #polarisation are fuelling a new strain of #antisemitism
on #both #left & #right.'

Lao Tzu knew water carves granite not by force, but by yielding. It is the Tao in liquid form. While the ego mimics a stone wall, true power flows like a river through the ruins of a Demiurge’s rigid design. Softness consumes hardness. #Simon #gnostic #taoism

TROPICS UPDATE: Musing about the question of the moment: Was it a 'sting jet' or not that produced the strong gusts in #Isaias? And #Simon and Trudy continue to ignore the forecasts as the storms find pockets with no steering currents. More at hurricaneintel.com

Pazifik:
Hurrikan #Simon schwächt sich ab,
Hurrikan #Trudy kommt.
Mit einem extrem starken #ElNino in Kombination mit dem #Klimawandel muss viel Wärme und Energie vom Äquator nach Norden transportiert werden.
Unterlassener #Klimaschutz wird teuer.

Anyway, this is my attempt to sum it up today in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion for #Hurricane #Simon.

Simon has been one of the more difficult track forecast events I have done & its why I spent time trying to explain the components.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

Fin.

That brings us to the dramatic shift seen in ensemble guidance for #Simon over the past day.

In the Google DeepMind ensemble, we saw a nearly 180 degree shift in forecast track direction. ↗️ to ↙️

I suspect it is due to track errors shifting the TC position from N to S of steering saddle point.

@pppapin.bsky.socialOct 14, 2026, 2:04 AM

We can contrast this with a model that had a pretty good initialization.

The 12z HWRF model initilization was actually close to the correct location of #Simon. This is likely why it falls S of the saddle point and then tracks it further south.

Example of a good initialization from the HWRF model that ends up tracking Simon further south.
@pppapin.bsky.socialOct 14, 2026, 2:03 AM

The saddle point is nearly identical, but #Simon's location was not. This is a case where good model init is essential to important to capturing the short-term track correctly. The 12z ECMWF initialization nearly a full degree too far N with Simon & likely why it falls N of saddle point.

Example of ECWMF initialization that is far away from Simon's actual center resulting in a track much further north.

A follow up thread to illustrate how sensitive #Hurricane #Simon's initial position to the col or "saddle point" was to its track.

Compare forecasts of GFS & ECMWF w/ these steering diagnostics via weathernerds.org.

GFS S of saddle & moves TC ↙️
ECMWF N of saddle & moves TC ↗️

Zhuangzi woke from a butterfly dream, but maybe a butterfly now dreams he is a man. This flux mirrors Maya in the Upanishads. Stop clutching a fixed identity. Let the boundaries dissolve into Tao. #Simon #taoism #hinduism
