It is going through one hell of a EWRC right now...Maybe 200 nmi wide. I think this storm will drop 20 to 25 knots once this new eye takes over. In with the upper level shear forget it restrengthing.

Shes going through a huge ERC right now that I don't think will be finished before she makes landfall! Her new eye is going to be huge if it does finish before making landfall!

Chanchu has approximately a 3/4 of a CDO, fortunately it's east of Hong Kong.

Hong Kong will be lucky to get TS gusts at this point.
