He got up to a 7.7 earlier when at his previous peak
It wasn't the final ADT that made it that high

All the pressure drops people are talking about and it's only going to increase 5 mph? that doesn't seem right.
I only missed it last time by I think about 3 mb... thinking it will take time for the winds to catch up with the pressure... I just wanted to be the outlier just in case since no one else was... going to find out soon though
You will probably be right. I forgot that winds take awhile to catch up to the pressure drops

Agree with them going back to Cat 5 with the much improved satellite appearance and T# around 7.3-7.6.

Kermit is in the air and halfway there already. We will have double low-level recon for the next few hours. Sit back, grab your favorite beverage, and F5 like crazy!

Re: ATL: MILTON - Hurricane - Discussion: 155 mph / 923 mbs
this is pretty crazy to see parroted all over the internet right now.. HAFS-A had this exact track.. when its at the corner of 23 north and 87 it will be exactly where it was supposed to be.
Its like the people I disagree with have converged to wish it away from Tampa or something (understandable but dangerous game to play)

Re: ATL: MILTON - Hurricane - Discussion: 165 mph / 918 mbs
Milton wobbled a bit to the southeast today, but the longer-term
12-hour motion is east-northeastward (075/8 kt). Milton is forecast
to turn northeastward and begin accelerating later today as it moves
between a trough digging into the Gulf of Mexico and a ridge near
the Greater Antilles. Because of the wobble, the track guidance
has been initialized a bit to the south of where many of the raw
model fields think the hurricane was centered at 1800 UTC, and this
has caused the entire guidance envelope to shift a bit south on
this cycle. It is still critical to remember that even at 36 hours
(around the time of potential landfall), NHC's track forecasts
can be off by an average of 60 n mi, which means we still can't
pinpoint an exact landfall location, especially if additional
wobbles occur in the short term.

forecast to cross Florida and emerge over the Atlantic waters on
Thursday.

Just like Jon Snow..."I know nothing" except what I know, and most of what I know is gathered by the fine people of the NHC

Looking at the updated windspeed probabilities, Hurricane force probability for Ft. Pierce doubled to 25%.
