Windspeed Posted August 27, 2020 Author Share Posted August 27, 2020 Anyone want to make a call on landfall pressure? I'm going with 934 mb. An additional 30 mb pressure drop by tonight does not seem unreasonable to me considering the current trends and the cyclone's structure and appearance.Yes I am being narcissistic. Piss off.

Amped Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 We all know it takes at least 6 months to determine whether it was a Cat 4 or Cat 5 at landfall. Stop speculating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is getting old pretty fast, I will admit Edit: I have never seen that many "haha" reactions on one post before. Has to be a new record, right?

Maestrobjwa Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 I don't think some brains here are separating the digital reality to the physical on here...sweet mercy above. 150mph...155...tiny little digital things that don't make a bit of difference with the reality of the storm!

This is the ticket. Here's the thing, even if the southern eyewall does open up (either through ERC, shear, dry air, simultaneous bird farts, whatever), guess what: you still have a 135-145mph storm roaring onshore vs 150-155mph. With a storm this size, the differences are going to be minimal. Especially with the surge being a factor. Edit: sorta ninja'd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPITSnow Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 If I am completely wrong here everyone please tell me to shut up in the thread.

Not claiming to be an expert on this either by any means (that's why I'm still in school!), but you are correct in that southern eyewalls often do look weaker than their northern segments. I don't think it is incorrect to say that Laura's does look surprisingly weak, there are other examples that look better, but I think it's important to take it as a part of the larger picture (eg: it has appeared this way for most of the day, the storm has managed to strengthen some regardless, etc). Just my 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdgwx Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Alright...this got brought up in a local weather forum I participate in. Anybody have any ideas of what phenomenon would cause the feature in this satellite loop. Keep your eye on the outer band east of the eye. An anomaly shows up at a towering thunderstorm in this outer band and races inward toward the eye. This anomaly occurs between 21:00 and 22:00Z and shows up in water vapor, longwave, and visible imagery. Make sure you expand the video to full screen for easy viewing. https://imgur.com/GcQo3Nm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if 97L gets buried in mexico and if 98 can slow down dramatically in the bahamas and turn north it may be able to be another Isaias.
