In the previous pass, Recon and Dvorak were in good agreement so I'd say we have to go with 90 kt here.

90 kt/967 mb is probably what I would use for 00Z.

If TAFB comes in at T5.5 and since CMISS is T5.4, I could see 95 or even 100 knots.

Chris is making a run for major hurricane status. If obtained, Chris will be the first July major hurricane since Bertha in 2008 (10 years ago already?)

:uarrow: He is in a good spot currently for more intensification, at least the next 12-24.hours before traversing into cooler ssts.

I think Cat 3 is very possible.

There is some westerly shear over the system, you can see it on the last visible. Uh, westerly shear means out of the west, right? Left? Anyway it appears that might keep the intensity in check.

They went with 90kts... I think it had a very good chance of reaching major status tomorrow.

Hurricane Chris Discussion Number 18
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL032018
1100 PM EDT Tue Jul 10 2018

Chris has been rapidly intensifying since the center moved out of
the area of upwelled cold water about 18 h ago, likely due to an
inner core convective ring seen earlier in microwave imagery
becoming a fully-developed eyewall as the cyclone encountered warmer
water. Satellite intensity estimates from SAB and TAFB at 00Z were
90 kt and 77 kt, and the CIMSS SATCON technique estimate was 90 kt.
Based on this and a subsequent increase in organization, the initial
intensity is increased to a possibly conservative 90 kt.

The initial motion remains 050/9. Chris is becoming embedded in
the mid-latitude westerlies between the subtropical ridge to the
southeast and a large deep-layer trough over eastern Canada and the
northeastern United states. The combination of these features
should cause Chris to accelerate northeastward into the North
Atlantic through 96 h, passing near southeastern Newfoundland in
about 48 h. The new forecast track is a blend of the previous track
and the HCCA and TVCN consensus models, and it is a little faster
than the previous forecast.

The eye of Chris is about to move over an area of slightly cooler
water south of the core of the Gulf Stream, and this will likely
slow the intensification rate. Otherwise, conditions appear
favorable for intensification for the next 18-24 h, and the
intensity forecast shows a little more strengthening before Chris
moves north of the Gulf Stream. Extratropical transition should
begin after Chris moves north of the Gulf Stream and be complete
before the cyclone passes near southeastern Newfoundland. After
that, the extratropical low should gradually decay as it crosses
the North Atlantic. The new intensity forecast is increased from
the previous forecast for the first 36 h based on current trends,
and it has been lowered from the previous forecast between 72-120 h
based on the latest guidance.

Lines up well with T# being right near Category Three but the final recon mission noting slightly lower surface winds than would be expected for the presentation. I thought Cat 3 was a slightly outside shot, but now the official forecast calls for 95kt, so we might well indeed break the record for northernmost July major. If it doesn't just randomly fall apart, lol

Not a meteorologist, in fact more of an idiot than anything. You should probably check with the NHC or a local NWS office for official information.

I would have gone with 95 kt based on continued improvement the last 3 hours, but it is definitely on the upswing. Best chance at major status is likely in the next 12 hours.

8 years - Alex 2010 reached peak intensity with 110MPH on July 1st. But Chris may overtake that at this rate.
