There is usually a lag between pressure falls and resultant increases in wind speed. Would not be too surprised to see winds respond within the next couple of passes.

RFQ in this case is the SE though.

Those only support about 65-70 kt. Highest intensity in the storm found was 75 kt (previous pass with 984 pressure), which is likely the current intensity despite the drop to 980.

I wouldn't call SSTs near 26C "colder", I have seen plenty of Cat 2 Hurricanes and even Cat 3 Hurricanes over 26-27C waters over the sub-tropical Atlantic.

Looks like there will be SST's conducive for development for the next day or so.


SST's per SHIPS have this falling to 26C in 12 hours and rapidly dropping off after 36. What am I missing here?

It's over 24C waters right now due to upwelling. It actually warms up for 24 hours or so.

In 24 hrs it will be back over the warm loop current before tracking off it after 36 hours.

If so, this most likely becomes a major then.

I agree, there's a good possibility, IMO.

Have not looked too deeply into it, but it might well indeed become the northernmost July major on record if it does so. Not seeing many other contenders at first glance, at least in the satellite era.

Okay, a more thorough search makes me very strongly suspect that this would be the northernmost July major if it reached that point. Definitely an outside shot, but could happen.

Colors of lost purpose on the canvas of irrelevance

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 have placed Chris's latest HWRF's forecast track over the STTs map, you can that by tomorrow afternoon into the evening it will be tracking over the warm gulf stream before heading into much colder waters on Thursday.

Hurricane Chris Discussion Number 17
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL032018
500 PM EDT Tue Jul 10 2018

Reports from an Air Force Reserve hurricane hunter aircraft indicate
that Chris has finally attained hurricane status, making it the
second hurricane thus far this season, which is ahead of climatology
by more than six weeks. The aircraft found 850-mb flight-level winds
of 88 kt in the southeastern quadrant, along with SFMR winds of
73-77 kt. Dropsondes in the the same area found equivalent surface
winds of 73-74 kt, and the most recent central pressure observed was
980 mb. Furthermore, satellite intensity estimates are a consensus
T4.5/77 kt from TAFB, SAB, and UW-CIMSS ADT, based on a well-defined
20-nmi-diameter clear eye. These data support a solid 75-kt advisory
intensity.

The initial motion is a slightly faster 050/09 kt. Chris is north of
a narrow subtropical ridge, and water vapor imagery also indicates
that Chris is beginning to feel the influence of a digging trough
over the northeastern U.S. and Mid-Atlantic states. The combination
of these two features should gradually accelerate the hurricane
northeastward at a faster forward speed through 96 hours. By the
time Chris passes well southeast of Nova Scotia in 36 hours or so,
the hurricane will be moving at a forward speed of more than 25 kt.
On the new forecast track, Chris is still expected to move near or
over southeastern Newfoundland in about 48-60 hours. The latest
model guidance has a much larger spread in both cross-track and
along-track motions. To smooth out these differences, the new
forecast track is down the middle of the tighter HCCA, FSSE, and
TVCN consensus model suite.

Now that Chris has moved away from the cold upwelling region, some
additional intensification is forecast for the next 12 hours or so
due to 27-28 deg C SSTs beneath the cyclone and the well-established
current outflow pattern that is expected to persist during that
time. Slow weakening should begin shortly after Chris peaks in
intensity due to the cyclone moving over cooler waters, creating
some modest upwelling as a result. By 36 hours, Chris will have
moved well north of the Gulfstream and be moving over SSTs colder
than 15 deg C. The combination of the much colder water and
southwesterly vertical wind shear in excess of 30 kt should induce a
rapid transition to an extratropical cyclone. The official intensity
forecast is above the intensity guidance through 12 hours, and then
shows weakening after that similar to the LGEM and IVCN models.

Now that Chris is moving away from the United States, the
previously scheduled aircraft mission for 11/0600 UTC has been
canceled.

Probably not what anyone was expecting at the start of the season.

Well guess what... I am flying to Nova Scotia, Halifax, Peggy’s Cove Wednesday morning and will be there until the 18th.

If I left Florida and went to Canada and have to deal with a tropical threat up there, I will laugh at the irony.
