Didn't even think about that, good point.

Woah! I've been gone most of the morning, and that's way better looking than I would've thought by this point. Looks like it's gotten convection more evenly balanced on all sides now. Honestly, I'm sort-of surprised Recon isn't finding any lower pressures at the moment. Perhaps they will begin to fall soon.

Have you checked the surge probabilities product on the NHC website?

What could possibly track this back into the GoM? That doesn't make any sense.

Wow those are some super high/cold tops on the East side of the center. Hot towers? Definitely looks like it's strengthening IMO

Re: ATL: MATTHEW - Hurricane - Discussion
RAP is showing a big build up of CAPE and Theta-E just before sunset.
Given that Matthew will entrain it overnight and at the same time the upper troposphere cools off; could make DMAX, Thursday morning, very interesting.
Conditions are much better for intensification than if it would be anywhere in the GOM at this time.

You can almost see ocean in the center on the visible, can't be tilted that much.

Disclaimer: 50% of the time I have no clue of what I am talking about. Chances are I am taking a less than educated guess that sounds good because 10 years ago I stole Mike Watkins book 'The Hurricane and its Impact'. For official information please direct yourself to the NHC and their cadre of weather geniuses.

Recon showing a 25 mph difference in flight level and surface winds on center fix. That leads me to believe the storm is not 100 percent aligned at the moment. Also not dropping in pressure and has a wide open western eyewall as seen on radar as well as noted by recon. If this is incorrect then pro met please chime in.
