I hope that Juan doesn't turn into a major cane because it only needs too get to 111 mph to get that status.

Chaser Isabel did the same thing intensifying rapidly from a tropical storm to a cat 2 hurricane in 12 hours and from cat 2 to cat 5 in another 12 hours.But I know that Perry or other members will have those stats that you are asking.

ChaserUK wrote:indeed, just was not thinking it would intenisify like that - do you or anyone have details on any historic rapaid developments for example, what in the quickest intensification of a hurricane, in what periods etc?
Typhoon Forrest in September 1983 in the Northwest Pacific Ocean
deepened by 100 mb (976 to 876 mb) in just under 24 hr. Estimated surface sustained winds increased a maximum of 30 kt in 6 hr and 85 kt in one day (from 65 to 150 kt).
Not sure on the Atlantic... but I believe Andrew's pressure dropped 92mb in 36hours.
