Mid level shear is messing this thing up.

Also banding. That one large band on Estelle’s west side is probably competing with the core.

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.

Still struggling with the shear, everytime it tries to build up convection on the N-NE side it immediately dissipates

Yeah no way this is becoming a major. It doesn’t have a great structure and shear is just strong enough to prevent it from improving.

Dry air and mid level shear are wrecking havoc upon the storms structure. It can’t close off.

Yeah this isn't looking good at all right now. Wouldn't be surprised if it's less than 75kts now honestly

EPAC: "I want to defy logic and produce major hurricanes left and right in July of a third year La Nina! Here comes Estelle"

La Nina-based shear and dry air: "Yeah, sorry, not happening, Darby was enough. :lol: "

Still forecast to hit Cat 2 but I think it missed it's opportunity to really get going. Dry air and shear are still disrupting it pretty good, and it may not even be able to intensify much again. Today was the day to do something and it wasn't able to get it done...

This had a really high ceiling with that upper level outflow pattern with dual outflow channels and great moisture envelope. But wind shear got in the way…
