Dan's outflow is absolutely powerful. IMO it is a marginal Cat 5, it does not take much deep convection to bring those winds to the sfc with such powerful outflow. I mean this is textbook outflow pattern for upper-end hurricanes, and if heat content were higher I'm absolutely sure this would be an upper end hurricane.

HURRICANE DANIEL DISCUSSION NUMBER 21
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP052006
800 PM PDT FRI JUL 21 2006

CLOUD TOP TEMPERATURES ARE COOLING AGAIN...AND DANIEL CURRENTLY IS
SURROUNDED BY A SOLID EYEWALL RING OF -70C OR COLDER TOPS. EYE
TEMPERATURES ARE ALSO WARMING AND THE EYE...NOW ABOUT 25 NM
ACROSS...HAS BEEN SHRINKING. IN ADDITION...DANIEL IS PRESENTLY
MOVING OVER A LOCAL MAXIMUM IN SST. DVORAK CI NUMBERS FROM TAFB
AND SAB WERE 6.5...127 KT...AT 00Z...WHILE THE LATEST 3-HR MEAN RAW
T-NUMBER FROM THE UW/CIMSS ADT WAS T6.7...132 KT. THE INITIAL
INTENSITY IS INCREASED TO 130 KT FOR THIS ADVISORY. A RECENT AMSU
PASS DOES NOT SHOW ANY EVIDENCE OF ANOTHER EYEWALL CYCLE...AND SO
LITTLE OVERALL CHANGE IN STRENGTH IS EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT 24
HOURS OR SO. A DEFINITE WEAKENING TREND IS EXPECTED WHEN SUB-26C
SSTS ARE REACHED IN ABOUT 36 HOURS.

THE INITIAL MOTION IS 280/10. THERE HAS BEEN VIRTUALLY NO CHANGE TO
THE OFFICIAL TRACK FORECAST...WHICH CALLS FOR DANIEL TO CONTINUE
JUST NORTH OF WEST FOR THE NEXT DAY OR TWO TO THE SOUTH OF THE
SUBTROPICAL RIDGE. MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT
THROUGH 48 HOURS. AFTER THAT...THE GUIDANCE DIFFERS IN HOW THE
RIDGE RESPONDS TO AN UPPER TROUGH CURRENTLY ALONG 155W. THE
GFDL...WHICH HAS HAD A RIGHT BIAS WITH DANIEL FOR SOME
TIME...CONTINUES TO SHOW THE SHARPEST NORTHWARD TURN...WHILE THE
UKMET KEEPS THE RIDGE RELATIVELY INTACT AND IS THE SOUTHERNMOST
OUTLIER. THE OFFICIAL FORECAST IS ON THE UKMET SIDE OF THE MODEL
CONSENSUS...AND IS CLOSE TO THE GFS.


FORECAST POSITIONS AND MAX WINDS

INITIAL 22/0300Z 13.6N 128.5W 130 KT
12HR VT 22/1200Z 13.9N 130.0W 130 KT

Just as long as they don't do a Kenna, Pauline, or a '97 Nora.

Kenna: Hit Mexico as a C4 hurricane in 2002, weakened from a C5. The town of San Blas was devastated and Puerto Vallarta hard hit.

Pauline: Hit as a C4 near Acapulco, but is more remembered for devastating flooding it caused, which killed hundreds of people back in 1997.

Nora: This one was weaker and followed at first in the footsteps of the much more powerful Linda (this is in 1997). However, this hurricane hit the northern part of Baja California and its remnants caused a lot of problems not just in Mexico, but even into Arizona and further. Damage was nothing major, but it was a reminder that tropical storms CAN cause problems even in Arizona.

Here are my thoughts right now:

I think Hurricane Daniel is a category 5 hurricane right now. There is no way this can be a 130 Knot hurricane, it's unreal. CrazyC83 once again was right, he predicted a CAT5. I'm looking at all the pics and the cold cloud tops and the strength IMO is at 140 Knots right now. I can't believe that this is in the Eastern Pacific...

Also, now I believe it's the 2nd best looking tropical cyclone I have ever seen. Sorry Hurricane Isabel, you lose! jk. It's tied with Cyclone Monica currently.

What else can I say? Just a super crazy hurricane. Best looking TC in the EPAC ever IMO as well.
