This might be it. Similar time of year. Peaked 125 knts officially, but arguably was stronger.

Kiko along with Olivia are the two most grossly underestimated hurricanes of the 80s IMO. I strongly believe they were both solid Cat.5 but overlooked by EPHC

Don't wanna get too offtopic, but I agree. The intensity estimates of those storm (along with a few others) have long interested me.

Granted, Dvorak constraints were followed more so back then.

That's cool, I wonder why the simulated IR always shows a much larger hurricane than what really becomes the size of the mature storm. The appearance might be similar but looks scaled larger as if the IR layer is zoomed in and the other not. Also, is that future Christobal on the far right (south of Florida) on that image?

Looks like the Epac wants to rip another one out for us.

A large low pressure system located several hundred miles south of
the Gulf of Tehuantepec is moving west-northwestward at about 10
mph. Shower and thunderstorm activity has increased in coverage and
organization during the past several hours, and environmental
conditions are becoming more conducive for a tropical depression to
form during the next couple of days.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...80 percent.

The 0z SHIPS initialization also seems off given the fact that it shows the GFS losing 92E's vorticity maximum.

...that's very obviously not the case.

180 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 9.1N 94.0W TO 13.3N 100.9W WITHIN
THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS. AVAILABLE DATA DOES NOT JUSTIFY ISSUANCE OF
NUMBERED TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNINGS AT THIS TIME. WINDS IN THE AREA
ARE ESTIMATED TO BE 20 TO 25 KNOTS. METSAT IMAGERY AT 210130Z
INDICATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED NEAR 9.5N 94.6W. THE
SYSTEM IS MOVING WEST-NORTHWESTWARD AT 07 KNOTS.
2. REMARKS: AN AREA OF CONVECTION IS LOCATED NEAR 9.5N 94.6W,
APPROXIMATELY 400 NM SOUTH OF SALINA CRUZ, MEXICO. ANIMATED
MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS A CONSOLIDATING YET BROAD

PERIPHERY OF THE SYSTEM. THE SYSTEM IS LOCATED SOUTH OF THE UPPER-

MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 20 TO 25 KNOTS.
MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1006 MB. THE
POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE
WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS HIGH.

Showers and thunderstorms associated with a broad area of low
pressure located several hundred miles south of the Gulf of
Tehuantepec have not become any better organized during the past
few hours. However, environmental conditions are conducive for
development, and a tropical depression is likely to form by Friday
or Saturday while the system moves west-northwestward at about 10
mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...90 percent.

CMC has this strong and being absorbed by Lowell and Karina

Showers and thunderstorms continue in association with a broad area
of low pressure located several hundred miles south-southeast of
Acapulco, Mexico. Environmental conditions are conducive for
development, and a tropical depression is likely to form by Friday
or Saturday while the system moves west-northwestward at about 10
mph.
