Have friends driving from Michigan to Florida leaving Tuesday morning and taking 2 days. How bad will it be if they run into the remnants on Wednesday?

Appears to be a dry slot rotating into the circulation...

That tiny eyewall will not hold. Another round of intensification is likely to happen after the small eye collapses. In the meantime intensity will level off while the inner core sort itself out.

Looks like some brand new hot towers about to fire around the eye.

Like what Blown Away and supercane have said, Sally will be having some core structure changes and probably level off in intensity before trying to intensify again. The arrival of Dmax could lead to more massive convective bursts like what we saw this morning.

The fact that Sally would still have time to intensify after this before making landfall is not good at all. Its slow movement is very problematic for just about every reason possible.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

A rather large dry slot. Landfall appears in eastern coastal Mississippi now. Looks like Mobile may get hammered....we shall see, never know with these tropical systems....MGC

MGC, praying for you and everyone along the coast in the landfall target region.

GOD Speed!!

At this point, Sally wouldn't even have to meet technical RI criteria to landfall as a category 4. A 2 or probably 3 is more likely, but I wouldn't rule out the possibility just yet.

Crazy work all day, WOW Sally looks like she could possibly landfall in AL or even the FL panhandle. What the hell happened today :lol:

Last eye drop was 63% RH at 700mb
Prev drop, 4+ hrs ago had 68% RH.
Low chance an EWRC is upcoming.

Towers overshooting the CDO with strong lighting.
4000 CAPE air pouring into the core in the feeder band.

Looks like the center moved about three miles since the last pass.

The satellite appearance has degraded, any idea what the issue is?

Correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like the eye is warming on IR. Hot towers firing to the NE

If you look at CIMSS, this is sitting in about 20+ knots of shear, yet she is going gang busters.
I think this has to do with the cold pool I was mentioning.
Check out the latest thermal profile from AMSU.
Not much of a warm core, but the cold pool is deep.
This is IMHO is analogous to big self sustaining MCS / MCV's that need a large cold pool and shear to sustain themselves and intensify.

Even if strengthening is leveling off like some here have suggested, There isn’t much of a difference between the 100 mph it is now, and the 110 mph it’s forecast to become. Storm surge will still be devastating no matter what due to slow movement

Yeah shear will enhance the updrafts and latent heat release if it can wrap upshear.
