Two big hurricanes in a row. Isabel is almost a major one and looks impresive this morning! Beautiful system indeed! As a hurricane enthusiast this is the moment to appreciate nature as it's best splendor. Isabel is fully round at this moment, the eye is in the middle suggesting slow to none shear, exelent outflow, deep thunderstorms, a system very well organized, indeed another "deadly beuty" just like was Fabian last week. Isabel could keep getting stronger and we may have a new major hurricane very soon! And thisone may not be the lastone, CV season may have one or two more strong systems during this month before it goes down into a cyclogenesis pattern of systems forming over the Atlantic to the north of the islands (20n and up, 50w and to the left of that), also the Caribbean, close to the Antilles around 50'sW and the Gulf during the last months of the season. But for now it's Cape Verde time! Let's see what comes out from there during the rest of September! :d

Do you remember Pac-man? If you look carefully to the satellite floater of Isabel you'll see dry air getting in to it on the southern band (use your imagination) this look's like the mouth, then to the middle, there is the eye and if you look to the whole system you'll see that it look's like Pac-man at this moment WAKA-WAKA...jejeje :lol:

NOTE: The picture I refer is the floater satellite of 11:45 UTC, the Pac-man face may have changed since then as the cyclone rotates...

It's really crazy how something can be so beautiful and so deadly at the same time.

Looks like it is smiling at us...^^" But It looks to be slowly bending back to the west this morning.

If it's smiling at us.. I'd hate to see what she's got on her mind.. She probably is trying to decide which US state she wants as her home.. that's why she is giving us all a smile.. but I think it's an evil stare

The nicest looking storms are usually the most intense. Isabel is certainly a beauty. Andrew was also a good looker, as were Hugo and Gilbert.

The 06Z GFS model takes Isabel on a path to just off the northeastern corner of Cuba, northwestward into far southern Florida and into Tampa. However, the 00Z GFS model right-hooked the storm into Bermuda. The paths are widely divergent on this storm this far in advance. There is no clear troughing along the east coast as with Fabian. The upper pattern will be very questionable as the storm heads into the northern Caribbean in about 6-7 days, so don't trust any of the models this far out. Fabian was following a very clear path. Isabel will not.

True but when Iris was at peak intensity she was nothing to write home about.

My favourite storms (on satellite) are and not in order
