The SFMR is all flagged, but I think there is enough confidence for at least 65 kt right now.

Pretty much is a hurricane right now, despite the highest SFMR winds are all flagged.

Next advisory will be a hurricane with those readings possibly 70-75 knots at this rate.

I hate to say it, but RI looks like a strong possibility at the moment. The IR brightness temperatures are about as cold as you'll ever see for a ATL TC. Some grid points colder than -90C! From what recon is finding, I would upgrade to a hurricane ASAP.

I know it has been mentioned today quite a bit, but I am still pretty amazed that Nate tracked a fair bit east of the forecast track all day today. This morning, based on the official track, I expected we would be watching Nate cross the NE Yucatan, and he went directly through the center of the Yucatan channel. This is quite a large track error, and rare these days. Not saying the NHC blew it or anything, just amazed that errors like this can still happen with such tight model agreement. Shows we still need to be on guard with track forecasts, even within 24 hours of landfall.

The shift east means that if it continues on the 350 or so heading, it will go right over the Loop Current. I'm also surprised they didn't extend the Hurricane Warning eastward.

Amazing what just a couple of hours can do in the right conditions. Convection just exploding in coverage and intensity. Not looking good for the Gulf Coast.

don't use the auto flagging. Those winds are perfectly valid

This convection signature is not normal, it's one of the strongest I've seen in the Atlantic. It resembles the WPAC and SPAC in cloudtop temperatures for CDO of rapidly intensifying storms.

Looks like they missed the center, might be going around for another try. Still looks like it is hugging the eastern edge of the forecast cone.

I'm thinking we see a Special Advisory around 11:00 pm CDT, and I'd bump the intensity up to 75 kt now and 100 kt at landfall personally. They may need new warnings to the east as well.

Omg guys I know I'm drunk right now but this is looking like a horrible night and upcoming day for intensification. I'm very worried for my family on the Gulf coast

Unless it starts going north instead of NW/NNW they probably won't

No one should be surprised at the likely RI commencing. NHC has been mentioning this for days, models have hinted at it, environment is favorable and you have extremely warm and deep waters it’s traversing. A category 3 is possible at the rate this is intensifying, and maybe more... this isn’t a “sloppy” storm anymore.
