T Number Likely 6.5 or greater
For the sake the SWF and the GOM one would hope this is the peak intensity right now. Hope that cooler sea temps or shear will rob it of its strength.

I'm no expert, but Ivan has CLEARLY been taking a due west course for the last 2 hours or so. If the elongated shape meant preparation for a northward track, I can't see why it would go from WNW to W at the same time it was allegedly starting to feel northward steering pressures. Just doesn't seem to jive with the laws of physics.
Could some of this not be partly the result of shear on the western part of Ivan, due to that exiting ULL, creating a more elongated shape?
