Teddy is an absolutely.huge beast of a storm in the making. There is no telling how strong he will eventually become. This will be the strongest cyclone of the seasòn in the N. ATL basin in all likelihood of this incredibly crazy 2020 season.

Microwave pass from several hours ago shows a storm, nearly complete eyewall. This will likely be a major this afternoon.

The triangle Paulette, Sally, and Teddy form is like the greater Bermuda triangle as Bermuda is practically smack dab in the center of all of the storms after literally being in the direct center of Paulette's eye recently and with Teddy threatening it as well. What a crazy time for Bemuda. Craziest since Fay and Gonzalo of 2014. :eek:

If I had to guess based on visual satellite, this would be a 105-110kt cat 3.

Looking very good on visible. However, the 12z best track actually went down to 80 kt for some reason.

Has that spiral-galaxy look reminiscent of Irma and similar long-lived, powerful hurricanes in their early (pre-sustained stadium eye) phases.

It already looks like a fairly large storm on visuals, but it's going to be huge after some ERCs.

Good to see Teddy gaining latitude, still.might be a problem for Bermuda though.

I did notice the GFS now has Teddy forecast to turn back west in 3-4 days before getting picked up by a trough in about 6 days.

All the models are in good agreement that Teddy will recurve in about a week.

I don't see any signs of weakening. The only reason I can think of is that they went too high in the previous advisory.

The eyewall is still open to the west. I guess Teddy might’ve invested some dry air and won’t continue intensification until it mixes it out, which could be a good thing. That could time a second start of RI with the arrival of Dmax, and it raises the likelihood that recon will arrive to an intensifying major when they head out tomorrow.

Intensification has stalled due to an apparent increase in shear:

There has been some westerly shear affecting Teddy but obviously it's not enough to weaken the system.

I hope it lessens so tomorrow we get a recon flight in a RI major that isn’t immediately threatening any land areas.

Love this shot - three hurricanes, plus vicky getting sheered by the outflow off Teddy, and you can even see the remnants of Rene as an area of enhanced cloudiness northwest of Teddy.

Still looking pretty good on visible, despite today's organizational hiccups. I'd say it's still around 85 kt.

It’s a lot better than before, though. It looks like that band to the SW is merging with the eyewall, or it could act as a shield to keep out dry air while the eyewall fully solidifies.
