There is, the NHC archives, but they are slow to update. Anyway, the vortex message confirms that 83 knots was the highest.


Yeah, that vortex just came out. Thanks, though.

The vortex shows her two ticks south of the 2pm advisory position. Is she not done heading south yet, or is that prelim?

Correct, a 10mb is very little compared to Ivan the Terrible.

Man, I saw this and I know it's going to bomb out when you can see the concentric eyewalls on this wide of a shot:

EDIT: Well, it was better on the last update.

The southward motion is occurring because of the changes in the eye and eyewall. My guess is that this should end with the ERC.

I think it's really important to take note of that 9C temperature difference between the eye and eye wall, after the ERC we could see some serious intensification.

check out the last few frames of this loop. This storm is getting incredibly large! It's been really growing in the last few hours.
