Re: ATL: Tropical Storm Gustav in Central Caribbean Sea
First "depression" I've ever seen with an eye feature. Not too shocked that it's already a cane. This ain't good people.

I doubt it. That's a lot. Maybe 85 mph at most.
its already 80mph that would only be 5mph in about 3 hours. I would say it has a shot at 90+ if you ask me we could already have higher then the winds found so far in the NorthEast quad.

Pretty crazy when you think about it. At this rate, I wonder what the total amount of intensification will be by 11 AM with his first advisory as a TD being yesterday at 11 AM.

Re: ATL: Tropical Storm Gustav in Central Caribbean Sea
with this storm intensifying so quickly, it makes me wonder if a more northerly path is possible?

recon reported that the radar is showing greatest intensity in the ne quad. I wonder what they will find there.
