15z update is up.North Atlantic reaches 80+ ACE units and WPAC surpasses EPAC. Matthew has as of this update 23.2825 ACE units.

If we make the assumption that Maue's numbers are accurate (at least rank-wise), this is the first time the WPac has been the ACE leader all year long.

09z update is up.Matthew now has 27.8475 ACE units and WPAC sprints well ahead of EPAC.

21z update is up.Matthew has reached +30 ACE units and still has plenty to get.(30.9725) WPAC gets more separated from EPAC.

We'll be crossing 100 tomorrow it looks like. 3/4 this board wouldn't have seen that coming regardless of their early season guesses.

09z update is up.Matthew has as of this update 33.6225 ACE units and Atlantic closing on 100 with a little help apart from Matthew from Nicole.

21z update is up.Matthew continues to pump fast the North Atlantic and something of a surprise,Nicole is adding more than expected ACE units to boost even more the Atlantic to reach 100 units shortly.Matthew has of this update 35.725.

Why did the WPAC ACE drop by almost 10?

Why did the WPAC ACE drop by almost 10?

My guess is Maue made modifications to the data that were less than released.

Yeah I noticed whenever a big ACE producer comes and goes, the ACE seems to decrease every time. It happened with the last major storms.

[cycloneye]

03z update is up. As of this update,Matthew ACE is 36.725 and with the help of Nicole,the Atlantic is almost at 100.

[Ptarmigan]

2016 would be the first season to see 100 ACE since 2012.

[cycloneye]

09z update is up.Mathew has now 37.935 ACE units.

[1900hurricane]

The 18Z update in the working best track (which is what I use to compute my ACE numbers) is almost certain to push Matthew above 40*10^4 kt^2.

[cycloneye]

Wow.Atlantic gets more boost from Nicole as a Hurricane and is proyected to last a while.I will have the 21z update later when the Atlantic surpasses the 100 units.

[cycloneye]

21z update is up.Two mllestones made with this update as Atlantic surpasses 100 ACE units with the secondary help from Hurricane Nicole and Matthew surpasses the 40 mark. (40.6975)

09z update is up with Atlantic getting more ACE units as Matthew and Nicole continue as bonifide hurricanes. Matthew now has 43.1225 ACE units.

[Ntxw]

The Atlantic is now above normal for the entire year according to wxbell. 104 units is the annual average. Matthew will have produced more ACE than any storm in any basin once he's done looking back since 2014.
