Yes, mostly. He is very good.
He does occasionally make mistakes. Last winter, he predicted a huge and prolonged severe cold spell for the mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions of the United States.
He was consistently calling for that for weeks, and then it just didn't happen. He said during one of his updates that he got a lot of flack about it. But I would say Bastardi is one of the best meteorologists out there.
Bastardi’s business predicts weather for clients and makes money, so je must be right more than not
Bastardi is fantaastic. And careful. He mentioned exactly what the Chief Meteorologist for Accuweather Bernie Rayno says in the following 18 minute analysis last night. It IS the upper LOWS that matter in the steering of the system.
So— if Dorian slows down in the middle N of the Central Bahamas... it could very well go due North— and Carolinas!!! Watch out. Historical data— just as Bastardi talks about— and he did mention this back 3 days ago— the track could go up the coast OR further out to sea— then landfall in SC... just like HUGO!
The huge wide round circle of storm center in mid FL is entirely speculative— it may never get there!! Let’s hope.
This is worth a watch Bernie Rayno- with live Sat and true tracking history of prior in this date range storms:
