Windspeed Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago Polo has some structural changes occurring. Note the two images below. Over the past four hours, the tops are warming around the immediate eye, while a larger / thicker band is expanding out away from the immediate core. The MW scan from earlier today did show some intense banding. Though it would be impressive how quickly that has come to evolve into a concentric feature. However, look at your post. That does appear to be evolving fast on recon's radar. Granted, Polo's eye has been small, and at this intensity, structural changes may evolve rapidly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The secondary eyewall does seem to be strengthening based on FL winds as well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackstraw Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago East/Central Pacific has been a Tropical nerds dream this season. Mostly harmless but absolutely beautiful blow torch storms. Polo is another gorgeous Major. I hope we're getting as much research data as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's hyperbole to say that all time US records for rainfall could be broken, with the slow movement, size/strength, track and of course terrain enhancement 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormchaserchuck1 Posted 39 minutes ago Share Posted 39 minutes ago I think the 1st one dropped 46" max over the Big island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
