ATL: ETA - Hurricane - Discussion
You could see the trochoidal wobbling last night on satellite and pinhole eye but I didn't want to say anything...
Very similar to Wilma which formed out of a monsoon trough too...

All observations are in Tecumseh, OK unless otherwise noted.
Winter posts are focused mainly for Oklahoma & Texas.
Take any of my forecasts with a grain of salt, refer to the NWS, SPC, and NHC for official information
Never say Never with weather! Because ANYTHING is possible!

Re: ATL: ETA - Hurricane - Discussion
Someone please command GOES-EAST to switch its mesosector back to Eta. This is frustrating lol

Re: ATL: ETA - Hurricane - Discussion
This looks like a storm that would end up retired if it wasn't a Greek storm.

I'm measuring about 9-10 miles across. Hard to be very precise, as the eye diameter at the surface is smaller than that at the top, and we can't see the surface well.

I am not sure why they are questioning why the global models show a cyclone in the NW Caribbean by the end of the week, by following the h85 vorticity from Eta it is clearly the same cyclone reforming when its vorticity goes back over water by then.
That's what confused me NDG...and ETA is a powerful cyclone unfortunately...I also wonder how much it will weaken...even spending time over land, before reemerging over water....
Eta is a rather small hurricane. It will be inland for over 48 hrs, passing over some tall mountains in Honduras on Wed/Thu. It may be lucky to retain its circulation when it emerges off the coast of Honduras, but it should redevelop this weekend.
Thankyou Wxman57...

Re: ATL: ETA - Hurricane - Discussion
ETA's core is compact, but the overall circulation of ETA has expanded quite a bit. Visible loops of the Caribbean show that the low level circulation covers almost the entire western Caribbean basin.

I've never seen the entire Central Dense Overcast (CDO) do a long cycle trochoid wobble like Eta was doing around 2am last night...
Must be a phenomenon of small cyclones...

Bilwi will likely be in the N eyewall. Fortunately the area is very low density, but the Bilwi community is in the direct path. Eta is a pretty small storm in size, so a 25 mile adjustment S would make a huge difference.

Eye a little warmer now, possibly 115-125 mph right now.

Hopefully the residents have left the area...
