I think we might see a special advisory at 65 mph with a hurricane watch...I do think this has been a tropical depression since yesterday afternoon and a tropical storm since early this morning...

Maybe not last night, but as early as 6 hours before the upgrade maybe? Also with a few 66,67 knot reports. I think its a good wind measurement. But the nhc experts will over look it to make sure.

NHC will have to UP the wind speeds at the 7pm advisory due to the proof from recon. This actually has 60mph winds at the surface most likely.

At least 60mph, maybe 65mph. 67kt translates to 53kt at the surface.

Will the NNE projected path hold true? I am concerned about the location of the low.....which last I saw was in the south central GOM. Any input welcomed.

I disagree, the center is struggling to wrap convection around and the entire west side of the system is dry as a bone.


Look at the latest image below. Convection is expanding over the center as I type.

Shear would destroy any storm in the central Gulf. It might be a blessing to turn your way.

That's some impressive strengthening given the type of shear it's had to deal with. I didn't think many forecasters had really thought this would strengthen at all... certainly not to that degree.

Just keep in mind those winds are very likely associated with a strong thunderstorm and not really with the circulation. There probably won't be a special advisory unless the convection remains consistent near/over the center and the winds persist.

I think they will do one more pass through to see if the winds are still that high, and then go from there.
