Considering this chart ...as sorted by top winds ... it seems Irma has a subtle outlier wrt to her more total intensity profile.  This cyclone's winds are slightly disproportionate to the pressure curve to wind ratio that is suggested by this list below... Interesting.  Note, winds presently 185 at 929, not 175

Well the day 6 fuzzy clusters are showing that the faster/northern ensemble members are more likely to curve east of Florida or miss altogether. The southern (not necessarily faster or slower) ensembles are more likely to slip into the far eastern GoM before the curve.

Of course we still can't see where that curve goes, since day 6 is the max range for data.

Too much tunnel vision. Zoom that out a little an it's mesmerizing.

You can see gravity waves emanating from the eye out in concentric rings plus the transverse banding as the cirrus becomes outflow. It's a gorgeous storm.

I was looking at the evil faces in the eye plus the mesos

Curious as to your thoughts.   Just looked at the GOES 16.  The disturbance in the BOC seems like it wants to get its act together.  If it does more than the models suggest how would it (or the outflow) affect Irma?   Would it help weaken it more than progged since the outflow would be somewhat limited on the west flank?  Could make for some interesting interactions?   Jose looks good too...

would pump the ridge and probably force Irma into Cuba, ie Euro shows that
