  1. It’s hard to tell for sure, but it appears there is a touch of a northerly motion.
  2. I’m not sure, the shear direction aligns with the storm motion. The models probably just got it wrong. EDIT: I’d like to hear from a meteorologist about this, I understand Jet = dead storm lul, but most storms aren’t moving East.
  3. Pressure and FL winds supportive of a category 5
  4. Flagged 142 knot SFMR, but unflagged 136 knot and 139 knot FL. Almost a category 5
  5. 933 extrap, an insane rate of intensification
  6. 982 on the dropsonde. The only issue I can see are the highest rain rates are in a band outside the developing eyewall
  7. Pressure is going to bottom out as those get ingested while the eyewall contracts
  8. Finally stopped puking out outflow boundaries. Looks much better right now.
  9. Not sure if that’s subsidence from convection, but RH values that low aren’t going to cut it for a major hurricane, and that is getting pulled into the core of the storm
  10. Helene is still dealing with mid level dry air, you can see it on WV and dropsondes
  11. Looks like it finally managed to pinch it off, just a matter of shoving out whatever is left.
  12. Hard to 100% tell, but that look more like a solid, protected pocket of moisture. Don't see any dry air left in the storm
  13. Looks like Helene will close off a much smaller eye than that huge one it attempted last night.
  14. 991.8, and Helene is pulling away from the buoy
  15. Pressure down to 993 mb on buoy 42056, and it didn’t get the center
  16. Getting tugged north by that blowup on the northern side of the nascent eye
