Really odd that all of a sudden a GOES satellite which has been dependable for years suddenly just goes inoperable at such an inopportune time.
 

 

The head of the National Weather Service was saying they need new satellites for years.  Never got the funding, maybe it's an inside job?

More seriously, now that the images are back...what's up with the structure? Seems odd, especially for a category 4 hurricane.

If I was seeing that setup with the convection far off from the center in a TW/TD/weak TS, I'd be concerned about its survival.

But the key thing is it is not a weak TS.

Convection on right looks healthier than Matthew?

Blob looks like Einstein to me for some reason.

wasn't there another recent powerful storm with a similar right blob?  I can't think of which one however.  It is bugging me.

That convection on the right has a face - too early for Halloween ....

That convection on the right could be a track maker - push him west if it stays parallel or push him north if it gets underneath  ....  (??????????)

It's a damn shame this wasn't the L storm.  It would have been called the "Lisa Lobe."

I would think the LLC would tend to try and tuck itself under the stronger convection the thus trend it east.    Anyone more educated care to answer that?
