Cat 5 anyone? With 140 knot winds I would like to think so.


this is a category 5 already no doubt if it weren't for constraints...


but judging from satellite and data, intensity looks to be about 150 to 155 knots...

too bad no recon...all we have is this silly dvorak thing... :roll:

SAB hasn't hit T7.5 yet. It's very hard to get above T7.0.

It hit a DT of 7.5 for a few hours, but that wasn't the number they used. Since then, convection has weakened a bit.

I think it may have peaked. Convection is weaker than earlier.

I dunno....last year, Sanba had a 900hPa recorded pressure, but I'm not sure whether or not that was the JMA's observation. And these are only satellite observations, right?

LEKIMA went down by..
-25 hPa / 06 hours
-45 hPa / 12 hours
-70 hPa / 24 hours
-93 hPa / 48 hours

One of the most rapid intensifications ever.

Strongest since Sanba last year, which was 900 hPa. Lekima has the same pressure with Jelawat at 905 hPa.
