Rita is about to take off in intensity, CDO has formed and system is about to become vertically stacked. Look out keys

TWC tropical update showed an incredible flare-up around the center. I think it will truly be a monster now.

Maybe also expanding quite a bit. Could give this area more than Katrina gave us.

Looks like the center has jumped southwest under the deeper convection that was already there earlier. I agree, pressure is going to drop significantly tonight.

the system's been vertically stacked for a while now

I'm thinking 100 mph by morning... and at least 975 mb on the pressure.

wonder how strong it will be tomarrow mournin when I wake up.
for katrina when I went to bed it was a cat 2 and when I woke up it was almost a cat5

raynpa · #12 Postby **raynpa** » Mon Sep 19, 2005 7:10 pm

115 mph by 5pm tommorow

I predict parts of the lower Keys will see 130mph+ gusts

Wonder what the next intensity estimates from DVORAK will be? :eek:

still only seeing a slowly developing cyclone, as indicated by recon

the bands are having trouble wrapping around the northern and eastern sides

jrod · #17 Postby **jrod** » Mon Sep 19, 2005 7:21 pm

I love the Dvorak images.

I've been in the FL Keys during a tropical storm and it is naturally windy there. They stick out into the ocean and there is nothing to break the wind....it's different than a storm impacting a landmass.

i think the center is reforming at 24.2 north take a look at radar!
