ATL: Tropical Depression Edouard

[Ivanhater]

With the blow up over the center, not surprising pressure is dropping, winds will increase in the next couple of hours with the lapse time between pressure drop and wind speed..

[Derek Ortt]

This does NOT have that much better of a sat signature from earlier today

the deep convection is still quite disorganized and is showing no signs of organizing.

Back to Edouard:

RADAR BANDING CONSISTENT WITH FL CENTER FIX POSITION. BAND CONVECTION HAS REDUCED, BUT ORGANIZATION HAS IMPROVED.

Recon is reporting the opposite, they are saying in the VDM that the organization has actually improved.

I have to disagree Derek, for the first time, convection is able to lift over the LLC, which is slowly tightening the center , with pressure gradually dropping, this is organizing...

[Cape Verde]

It certainly looks better than it did this morning. Scroll back on this thread to about 7 am CDT and it's quite obvious.

[KWT]

Yeah but to be fair Derek isn't saying it hasn't improved just the presentation hasn't improved by THAT much really and I agree with him, sure its spurting out deep convection now and it is the organisation has improved a little but not by a huge deal

[Thunder44]

Dr. Lyons on TWC, just said he thinks the pressure drop is partly related to the dinural pressure trend in the tropics. But he is concerned that is slowed down. It gives up more to time "spin up" before landfall.

I dont jump on too many pro mets...A few I've questioned but they know way more than the average poster.

Instead of "getting his act together or here he comes RI", Eddie has added some width/length, cloud coverage.

A remark from the latest VDM.

Slowing down is all the more reason why I think it's going to head more towards LA, than Texas.

Very interesting Hurakan, I suppose that may mean either two things, either recon missed the true center or it has jogged SSW in the last hour or so, either one is interesting to note

[Matt-hurricanewatcher]

A little off topic but what Edouard do you feel was more impressive the 2002 one or this one. I feel the 2002 one had deeper convection for time over the LLC, but this one has better banding and less shear overall to deal with.

Anyways this is much better then it was earlier today. You have 'great' outflow over the east and southeast quads. With 20 percent "eye" feature.

Actually the top 999 reading was the last pass through....

[Category 5]

so far 999mb ..

Come on drop another 4 mb. LOL

I know I have dry humor.

A dry post more like.

Anyway, if you look on the last frame you can see the latest flare up.

Other way around. The most northern one is the most recent. It was a bad VDM because it hasn't jogged NNE.

53kt at 91.2N thats on the coast!! well away from the center.. north quad
