That is the upper level dropsonde flight and they won't be going into the eye for wind/pressure readings. Next flight into the eye takes off at 3:30 CST I believe. https://noaahrd.wordpress.com/2017/09/05/the-g-iv-is-set-to-gather-data-around-hurricane-irma-today/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packbacker Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Cleo was a major that went over Cuba...went from a 4 to a 1 and recovered some after but weakened greatly on it's approach to SC. Would expect Cuba to really weaken Irma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radtechwxman Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 If Irma doesn't make that more northerly turn later today I would say the chances of land interaction with the Dominican or Cuba are much higher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavarreDon Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Noticed this on the 2:00 pm update.

I just took a peek at satellite and you can say the slightest little jog nw. If this thing ends up traversing northern Cuba that would def take Irma down a few notches.

Chinook Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 regarding the latest Vortex recon message: the surface wind detected is 160 kt, the max flight level wind is 151 kt. Is this something to be expected? I was thinking that the flight level winds were always at least 10% greater than the surface wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
