I doubt it'll be at 90kts too long given the way the northern eyewall has decayed in the last 6hrs, I suspect once the southern eyewlal reaches the lower heat content it'll go the same way as the northern eyewall went, could be a fairly quick weakening occuring past 6-12hrs IMO...

HKO:
Tropical Cyclone Warnings
Bulletin issued at 20:45 HKT 17/Apr/2008

Tropical Cyclone Bulletin

Here is the latest Tropical Cyclone Bulletin issued by the
Hong Kong Observatory.

The Standby Signal, No. 1 is in force.

This means that a tropical cyclone now centred within about
800 kilometres of Hong Kong may affect us.

At 9 p.m., Typhoon Neoguri was estimated to be about 690
kilometres south-southwest of Hong Kong (near 16.5 degrees
north 111.8 degrees east) and is forecast to move
north-northwest at about 12 kilometres per hour in the
general direction of Hainan Island.

Under the combined effect of the northeast monsoon and
Neoguri, winds locally will strengthen tomorrow. With
Neoguri staying on its current course, the chance of
issuing the Strong Wind Signal No.3 overnight is not high.

Yup, WV shows dry air invading from the northwest. PGTW gave 85KT in their latest 12Z advisory.

Here in HK winds are strengthening steadily.

Not quite. Category 3 begins at 111 mph, and 95 knots is 109 mph.

April:

2007 - Typhoon Kong-Rey [ 80 knts ]

2005 - Typhoon Sonca [ 90 knots ]

2004 - Typhoon Sudal [ 90 knots ]

2003 - Typhoon Kujira [ 90 knts ]

And if we continue down the years, there should be more.

Yeah so much for it weakening it looks pretty impressive...not sure you can read too much into the dvorak reading as its been around the 5.5 mark for the last 18hrs even when it looked less then impressive in the morning...however I wouldn't be surprised if this was 100-105kts looking at it right now. places in the path beware!

Typhoon Sonca made it to cat-4 in April 2005 so it does happen sometimes.

I'm away from the computer for two days and I miss this?

Pretty impressive for a category 2 equivalent.
