Will Hurricane Henriette Be Upgraded (Post-Tropical Re-Analy

#1 Postby hurricanes1234 » Thu Aug 29, 2013 8:51 am

Does anyone think Hurricane Henriette 2013 will be upgraded to a Category 3 hurricane in the post-tropical re-analysis? Or even a 110 mph Category 2? At its peak intensity, it had a distinct eye, and the storm itself was very small in size, which to me, made it look a little stronger than 105 mph. What are your thoughts?

No. And I was relieved when it didn't or it would have screwed up the streak of no majors in both the Atlantic and Epac up to now. It was just miles away from 140ºW and I started sweating when it pulled a fast one on the NHC forecast which I had a funny feeling it would. It didn't look as good as Hurricane Carlotta from 2012 which didn't even make it to 100 knots.
