Radar showing 160 mph winds in the eastern eyewall for the first time

140 flagged SFMR, 932 mb

This is a NHC met saying this

Yeahhh I think that pretty much confirms this plane is having pressure instrumentation issues

131 KT SFMR

145 KT flight level 

Looks like the eye is opening up more on satellite, might give her another boost

947 mb now on the new info, nearly 130 kts SFMR

IR presentation has degraded slightly, hopefully means intensification has halted for now

Some new hot towers going up rn as the eye clears out right after you all said that lol

Latest pass just now shows winds and pressure haven't started to respond yet

If this gets as strong as some models are showing, the refusal to issue evacuation orders might go down as one of the biggest emergency management failures in American history.

After the neverending storms it's nice to see some sun

Magnitude 8.2 earthquake just occurred near the Aleutian Islands.   Have to watch for tsunami potential with this one

Revised to 8.3, Buoys from Alaska to Japan just went into event mode, this might be a nasty one but I pray not

Looks like the line is trying to split rn

Time to consider if this going further west than expected could enhance the severe threat later today further east and maybe have it stretch further

HRRR is now showing additional supercells popping in Lower Michigan as the better forcing moves down

Unless things change soon, Michigan is out of it.

Trajectory has been more S to SSE.

Weird how even the latest HRRR run and the spc still expects it to take a sudden right turn

It's kinda hard to tell with this storm motion if it's gonna hit Michigan as forecasted or go down into Illinois

Already looking nasty and the LLJ hasn't even kicked in yet

Western portions of the line are developing rotation

With CAPE values as high as what we are seeing when these storms form they will certainly explode as they move south/se.

Right on cue, four new warnings for the cells ahead of the line 

They forgot to add the PDS text at issuance lol
