Gulf Stream + central circulation becoming "enclosed&qu

I have been watching this for hours, and it has never been so well organized or closed as it is right now, plus as she rotates over the GS, you can see her explode with newer heavy rain just spinning up into her.

I don't know a whole lot, but it seems to me she isn't having trouble getting stronger at this point.

Thoughts?

Frances is certainly looking better than a few hours ago.

Well, what I am noticing is at 3am, her radar signature looked nothing short of lackluster. Now, she looks filled in and more organized. I don't know, maybe it's just me... but if she did that in three hours... :eek:

Now that there is suddenly more precipitation on the western side of the center it looks like that outer heavy band might actually rotate down here to Miami. Fine with me as long as I don't lose power.
