899 mb on that pass.

Yeah, Milton is going black hole mode right now. NOAA2 cannot get there fast enough for some of us. Bizarrely ADT raw T# dropped to 7.4. Given the current satellite presentation...make that make sense.
-
NOAA2 better hustle. Milton is about to peak.
-
Maybe my eyes are deceiving me, but it looks like the eye has contracted a bit over the last 30 minutes.

Hurricane Milton has definitely started more ENE now
Yep. It is definitely gaining latitude now.
-
ADT raw T# is fluctuating some, but mostly steady over the last 2.5 hours. It is currently at 7.5. The final T# is starting to spool in now at 6.5.
-
While we wait for the next recon mission ADT final and raw T numbers are 6.0 and 7.5 respectively. The RI has made ADT slow to respond so the raw T number is probably more applicable right now.
-
The SFMR readings definitely look suspicious. I hope they put a dropsonde down in the eyewall on this pass so that we can confirm the FL-to-sfc relationship.
-
The RI rate is now 7.5 mb/hr.

What are the chances this continues to move north beyond TPA and into the Cedar Key area?
The cone is the 1σ (68%) envelope. It is expected that tropical cyclones will deviate outside one specific side of the cone about 16% of the time. Given that Cedar Key is just inside the cone on the north side you can infer about a 20% chance.

Not that I trust it, but SFMR got 176 kts unflagged on that pass.

The dropsonde that reported 127 kts at the surface also reported a peak in the whole profile of 145 kts at 910 mb.
The most recent drop in the NW eyewall only reported 105 kts at the surface but a remarkable 183 kts at 900 mb. It probably got entrained into a gust, but still...that's 211 mph!

NOAA3 mission 7 dropsonde at 12:54Z was 941 mb with 17 kts.
AF309 mission 8 dropsonde at 14:12Z was 935 mb with 17 kts.
That is almost 5 mb per hour.

That last dropsonde measured 935 mb with a 17 kt wind. That's good for at least 934 mb and possibly 933 mb.

Oof...that latest recon pass is nasty. 941 mb extrapolated, 143 kts FL, 146 kts SFMR, and a dropsonde of 127 kts at the surface. BTW that puts the FL to sfc conversion at 0.89.

12Z SHIPS is out though I'm not sure how helpful it is during a round of ongoing RI. Anyway, it is initialized at 110 kts. The consensus between statistical and dynamic is 44%, 41%, and 29% for 25 kts, 30 kts, and 35 kts of additional intensification respectively. There is a > 50% of an ERC in the next 24 hours.
Shear and dry air are still expected to encroach and weaken the storm as it approaches land.

18Z SHIPS is still favorable for rapid intensification (no surprise). The model is initialized at 70 kts with the odds of 55 kts of further intensification at 21% for SHIPS and 97% for DTOPS and consensus of the two SDCON at 53% suggesting that 125 kts (category 4) is not only possible, but perhaps likely.
Of note is the shear, at least that which is modeled by the GFS track, which increases significantly as Milton approaches land and is the primary factor in the decline in intensity prior to landfall.

While most of the hurricane models were bold with their intensity at 18Z one notable exception is COAMPS which peaks at only 65 kts. Because publicly accessible data is so hard to find that isn't delayed I can only speculate on the cause. I noticed its track takes a deeper dive toward the Yucatan not unlike the ECMWF and ICON. Notice that the ECMWF and ICON are more bullish with the development of the minor tropical disturbance on the eastern side of the GOM even establishing and maintaining a closed surface low as it tracks over FL ahead of Milton's approach. This causes a slight Fujiwhara bend in Milton's track. It's possible COAMPS sides more with the ECMWF/ICON in this regard and as result may be mitigating intensification somewhat. Anyway, the point is that not all hurricane models in the IVCN suite are bullish on Milton's intensity.
Edit: Slight wording change for clarity.

0Z SHIPS is in. It's still showing modest intensity and RI probabilities. However, what piqued my interest is that DTOPS is showing an RI probability of 88% of 65 kts in 72 hours. I don't remember seeing a higher value. DTOPS is the Deterministic to Probabilistic Statistical Model and is said to be the most skillful of all intensity models. [DeMaria et al. 2021]

18Z SHIPS modestly favors rapid intensification. It only peaks Milton at 80 kts though, which given latest dynamical guidance, should probably be viewed as closer to the lower bound.
