CDO seems to be shrinking and warming more rapidly now than it was overnight, though it'll be a while yet before this gets below T7.0 - there's still a rather impressive outer band & a very warm eye. My guess is it'll be down to 145 kt / 908 hPa by 0z, but they might decide to hold intensity for the 18z best track update.

MSLP is down to 992.9 hPa at PGSN and 993.7 hPa at PGUM, as of 16z. Will be interesting to see what kind of data they record when Sinlaku makes its closest approach.

Kinda looked like it was doing an ERC on radar earlier but now I'm not so sure. Maybe it's been trained by Melissa in the art of not undergoing full ERCs.

For sure Sinkalu will be subject to many studies and analysis by the experts, especially in terms of the lack of ERCs.
