Could be a trick of the eye, but there seems to be a clearly defined center in the last frame there at 22.2N, 53.4W.

You may be correct in that statement. We'd been tracking a mid-level circulation moving northwestward toward that point. It does look like it could be developing an LLC there.

Oh, and here's my final loop of the day. Time to go home:

Take a look in the US Weather forum.

Wow it really looks like the whole system is now starting to organize and spin around the center

Does any one have any Ir imagery or winds shear maps??

#848 Postby **WeatherEmperor** » Tue Aug 09, 2005 3:22 pm

I am still seeing this. Anybody think that Irene has ever so slightly slowed down?

while the vis is more impressive, the IR is much less so.

While upper winds have become more favorable, the convective activity that was shear enhanced is no longer there and the SAL remains

18Z models were initialized with a forward motion of 6 knots, so yes Irene has been moving slower of late.

She looks to have slowed down and appears to be moving north of west now

at the way that she is going right now. I think in the next 1 to 6 hours or so so wil have a pretty good circular shape to her. I'm surprised that she is only packing winds of 35 MPH. the way that she is looking right now she is out of her leauge she needs to strengthen. and in my opinion she will alot with in the next day or so

I finally think that Irene may be force to be recond with if she lives up to here name. because Irene seems like a powerful name in a way.

I can definitely see a mid-level circulation center near 22.5N/53.5W moving to the WNW-NW at maybe 10-12 kts. It's been visible for 3-4 hours. Can't tell if there is any surface reflection - probably not. Even though outflow looks a little better, convection does not. As Derek said, Irene continues to fight for her life this afternoon. I don't think it qualifies for TD status, still. There just isn't a well-defined LLC.

It seems very strange to me that the NHC passed Irene off to the HPC this morning. Anyone know what's up with that? Problems at the NHC today?
