Don’t hate this look at range

Man that first week torch in December really went away. Snow on the doorstep at 165 of the GFS.

They got 893 on a dropsonde with 13kt surface wind. So probably 892.

893 with a splashdown with 13kt. Outrageous

I sure do hope we get this video. Never seen the hunters go on multiple loops inside the eye

another loop. Never seen anything like it.

896 is the official measurement they are going with it looks like.

Hopefully we get this recon video. Full loop around

Looks like 907 from the sonde.

Oh man…waiting for drop

Outrageous.

12z Euro into Wilmington, NC. Not much rain for the Saturday Night - Sunday morning deal but better trajectory for impacts from Imelda.

Crazy part is that's Monday! Went from no storm at all at 12z yesterday to a Cat 1-2 landfall coming in 3.5 -4 days. I don't envy forecasters. What a very complex and tricky set up with the different interactions. I know the forecast discussions have been harping it but for the general population, could be quite a shock to wake up to hurricane watches potentially Saturday morning.
