  1. First center dropsonde puts minimum pressure in the low 930s.
  2. Holy moly. 928.0mb extrapolated pressure. Peak FL winds of 140kt and SFMR of 138, 139, 144kts. Wow.
  3. Plenty of time for the last second kick east.
  4. Recon is about to find something insane. You rarely ever see this in the basin.
  5. It’s amazing. HAFS can’t even keep up with the rate of intensification. We’ll see how high it goes before the ERC.
  6. Recon is fairly close. They should start descending shortly but it’ll probably be a while until they get the first center fix in.
  7. It’s still east of NE verbatim, but was west overall in LF location—a direct hit on Nova Scotia as opposed to a track near/over Newfoundland at 12z and 06z. Really hard to figure out specifics of this steering pattern long range but the trend seems to be west the last ~36 hours.
  8. With Lee becoming a major and Margot now expected to become a hurricane, forecast is in even better shape. WxWatcher007 Peak Season Forecast (Aug 20-Oct 20) Named Storms: 13 (9) Hurricanes: 6 (3) Major Hurricanes: 3 (3) Emily, Franklin (MH), Gert, Harold, Idalia (MH), Jose, Katia, Lee (MH), Margot
  9. I think this can adjust west further, but not that far. This’d be a lock if that trough were going negative, but it looks like those pulling for a hit will have to rely on positioning and timing.
  10. It’s intensifying at an extraordinary rate…
  11. Those hits are great for a Typhoon Tip memorial dopamine drip, but always lead to a hell of a crash--as we saw all last "winter".
  12. That's all I'm following at this point (still) Don't care where Lee gets placed exactly on a TT plot.
  13. That's where I think recon would be very helpful. Just in general I'm always wary of models underplaying the strength of ridging, and that has been an issue this summer. Here, it matters because as you know the further west this goest the more threatening this becomes to someone if that trough continues to trend towards more amplified.
