  1. Well initially the storm was moving to the NW but now the eye appears to have shifted and is pointing to the NE... and the stronger winds appear to be on that E side... however the storm motion (at least from the MW loop and other bands) still appears to have the system lifting to the N.
  2. You can see where recon has been fixing an "eye". The strongest winds (so far from dropsondes) have been over on that east side (notably the SE side so far with one reading of 29 knots).
  3. Plus it's shallow along the coast too. I remember being in Galveston around this time of year about 25 years ago and the "monotonous" forecast of "Partly cloudy, high 95. Tomorrow, partly sunny, high 96... Thursday, mostly sunny, high 96".... and the 85 degree water.
  4. Imelda was sitting in literal sauna water and am guessing the intensification was enough to give it enough momentum to finally move onto land. It will be interesting to see where Karen actually makes landfall given where they just found the eye (or at least one area where that is part of an eye).
  5. Thank you and given the ENSO neutral conditions, it will be interesting to see how these budding systems respond to it (outside of Dorian and Humberto).
  6. I saw that yesterday with the 18z GFS. I was like WTF is that coming across the GOM and slamming into TX (and figured it couldn't be Karen)??
  7. There have been multiple smaller aftershocks as well... https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us60005mja/region-info
  8. 5 am update and Karen got some of her mojo back! BUT P.R. had a 6.0 earthquake this morning
  9. Looks like recon sortof found a CoC (looks like the recon is done and they are headed back to the VI) -
