  1. The HAFS A and B both have it in the middle of a ERC and don't complete it for about 48 hours. The Navy.mil site seems to be down, so hard to say how far along the process is, but after the last ERC we were left with quite a bit of competing bands that held strength in check initially and ultimately led to our current ERC
  2. Meanwhile Lee is looking much improved, if it can continue to wrap convection around the eye it may take off again sooner rather than later
  3. The Euro has been all over the place. Swings between missing NS entirely to the East, and a US landfall almost every other run. The GFS meanwhile has been rock steady with a landfall on NS for days now.
  4. That's MAJOR HURRICANE scrambled eggs to you
  5. Yeah, it's been rock steady for several days now (keep in mind the heavy precip is west of the track).
  6. Structure is impeccable. HAFS B suggests an ERC starting around 21-0Z this evening. Seems inevitable based on the size of the eye. But could see strengthening in the meantime
  7. I think so, I don't think a little bit of shear would cause the eye to degrade on appearance and the pressure to rise so much in a such a short period of time without an ERC. Not any signs of one on microwave which could be just due to the low resolution/small core, but also could indicate more of a meld/quick ERC.
  8. Missing pressure data at the moment. Hopefully temporary
  9. Am I seeing a hint of a double wind maxima? Or just noise?
  10. Went from 80 mph to 160mph (give or take) in 15 hours
  11. Making any mention of a single ensemble member should be punishable by a night in jail or a fine of no less than $5,000
  12. The TT SST analysis seems to have ocean temps maybe a bit too cool in the cold pool. A buoy in the heart of it is measuring 78.4F which is warm enough to keep a strong hurricane going. It also has risen a full degree since earlier this morning.
  13. Not a ton of strengthening overnight, but improvement to structure, should be stable for a while now and ready to rock and roll.
  14. Looks like it's about to start it's RI tonight
  15. The TT webpage for Lee updated to hurricane, must be upgrading at 5 pm
  16. At the bottom of the lower dynamics tab. But it isn't available in all regions.
  17. Can see a little shear preventing this thing from wrapping up quicker. Otherwise I'd say hurricane by early this evening , but should at least steadily strengthen until tomorrow when shear should relax, as you say
  18. Convection going up big time. Will eventually be what drives the formation of the eyewall barring any unforseen hickups
