Radar shows intensification of western eyewall right over their most populated city. As bad as it can get for the island.

FYI - 9PM position update included a change to 924mb from 925mb at the 8pm special advisory. Hadn't seen anyone post that yet.

Well, I guess this puts to rest all this "powerful sounding name" stuff when it comes to predicting which storms will be the dangerous ones, based just on their names, because Maria is probably one of the gentlest sounding names one could think of. Yet it's now a monster cane!

mostly built after 1979. But Dominica does not have the GDP as does Antigua and Barbuda. But even so, Cayman was destroyed by Ivan in 2004. There is only so much you can protect for, unless you go full concrete dome for all structures

That has to be offline, doesn't it? There is no way they are only seeing wind gusts of ~30 mph right now.

Careful... they haven't made it all the way through just yet. Only down to 974mb. If they can penetrate all the way through we'll see higher numbers in the next batch of data.

Maybe some mountain shielding? A poorly located personal weather station? Who knows. It *looks* to be updating live...

Looking at the damage pictures from US & British Virgin Islands, I was in shock as to how many homes had wooden roofs and not solid re-enforced concrete roofs, just about all the homes with wooden roofs lost their roofs including the plywood & trusses.

Middle of eye now on shore.
Wall is being taken down a notch or two by the mountains.

I guess recon could not get into the middle of the eye because is probably inland already.
