ATL: INGRID - Remnants - Discussion

[SeGaBob]

The eye seems to be getting more visible with each new satellite picture...

[SouthDadeFish]

Yup, I posted that microwave pass from 14:18Z and it looked like an eyewall was forming. Now we have recon suspecting that and visible imagery hinting at it as well:

Yea, looks like we were right after all lol.

I'm thinking Recon will find winds of 70-80 kt when it goes in...

HURRICANE INGRID...been waiting to say that.

Maybe the second Hurricane in a row?

80 KT? Maybe flight level.

I'd say Ingrid is about 80 MPH right now. Definitely closer to the 70 KTS lol

[Time_Zone]

Eye is really starting to clear out now.

[SouthDadeFish]

Recent ASCAT pass:



Looks like the TS winds don't extend very far from the center...

[Sanibel]

I think Ingrid is synoptically sheared by the High pressing down from the NE and Manuel affecting it from the SW. Sort of a squeezed effect. Like Humberto Ingrid is powering up anyway.

[psyclone]

Eye see Ingrid. I agree with the others on here that contend an eye is indeed forming. it sure is cool to see one on a visible sat. an atmospheric treat that's been lacking in recently. I hope the folks in Mexico are prepping not only for a big flood event but a solid wind event near the core at landfall. it'll be interesting to see if A.) hurricane warnings are issued with the 5pm package and, B.) if the landfall intensity is upped. I suspect the answer to both will be yes.

Can't tell if that's an eye forming on visible, but I do see at least one ear and part of a nose.

Ingrid remains a well-behaved storm. All model guidance indicates the ridge over TX/LA builds in with a vengeance tomorrow, shoving Ingrid westward or maybe a little south of west and inland Monday morning a little north of Tampico. Euro indicates continued strengthening until tomorrow evening. I wouldn't be so confident it's going to reach 70 kts and stop there.

Eye forming...

Does D-min/D-max affect Hurricanes?

Sorry for the random question

Does D-min/D-max affect Hurricanes?

Sorry for the random question

It does to some extent. The Stronger they are though the less it affects them.

[Time_Zone]

Thanks for the answer!


This place couldn't possibly be anymore dead right now....kind of sad considering we have an intensifying hurricane in the BOC.
