  1. Zeta looks to be strengthening right now, I am seeing signs of northerly banding from the main convective mass, the convection continues to cool over the center of the MLC, and overall banding features have developed considerably over the past hour (with the potential start of a curved band developing to the left)
  2. Unflagged 119kt FL winds in NE quadrant. I'd say 95kt would be a good estimate, maybe 100
  3. And just like that, the eye is clear
  4. You guys may have jinxed it, Delta's eastern eyewall is the best I've seen it recently
  5. Recon is picking up hurricane level FL winds nearly a full 2 degrees away from the center
  6. Eye is torching right now, I think it could clear in the next hour
  7. Frankly I think that's because hurricanes are pretty complex, and for someone who isn't a weather tracker the nuances of certain aspects of hurricanes are a little much to expect someone to know, especially with the compounding crises already at play this year. The NHC has been doing a good job of distilling the main threats though
  8. Laura didn't necessarily bust surgewise, but I think that Delta's surge could be significantly higher and over a pretty broad swath of the gulf if the HWRF is to be believed
  9. This sure puts the Greek storms of 2005 to shame
  10. I can't remember the last time I've seen a storm this small, really has that Andrew look
  11. Looks like an eye might be popping out
  12. Sure looks like an eye is trying to pop out, likely just a warm core feature
  13. I'm really suprised how good Gamma looks right now with all the shear in the gulf
  14. Sure looks like more than 45 kt to me
  15. Whipping pretty hard in Boston right now, power is out for my dorm at Northeaster University
  16. I respect your opinion, but I flagrantly disagree, especially with the NHC part. As far as I can tell the NHC has only named systems that have definite tropical charicteristics, and aside from an early subtropical storm, all the systems we have had have pretty clearly been warm core systems with winds above 40 miles per hour and a closed surface low, which is all that is needed for naming. The NHC's job is hard enough without people shitting on them for political reasons
