your right, a stronger storm would want to go poleward, IF there is a weakness, which the models are pointing towards possibly. It's going to need to be pretty big for it to effect Felix though right now.

This is amazing, this is about as rapid as intensification gets.
Hopefully, we'll get buoy data, it's not worth the risk for the Hurricane Hunters to fly into this thing.

However, based on the Felix's intensification, the expansion of the "red areas" and the projected path (considering possible wobbles), what do you think is the worst case scenario for Jamaica tomorrow?

the pressure will not catch up.... its the other way around... the winds catch up to the pressure.. the pressure in that area of the caribbean is higher than other areas in the caribbean, so the hurricane will have a generally higher pressure...

Your clueless... They don't draw straws.
Have a little more respect for what they do.

Jesse, I know, but given the freakish rapid intensification, I can't help but to wonder if the pressure hasn't caught up to the winds. You think this one will become annular?

Not unprecedented, especially at low latitudes. Ivan was in the 930s when it hit Cat 5 for the first time (it reached 910 much later).
