Pretty significant now. Just a very few hours ago at 927. then heard 925. If 920, then this could really take off. GFS on intensity seems outlandish. But, Irma is not your normal storm. This has unknown potential. Restrengthening in the Fl Straits......
That is right. Pressure is falling again, which is a very ominous sign. She will be a Cat 5 again for certain later tonight imo. That is why the interaction with Cuba is critical to try to weaken the cyclone. It is going to be real close, but iI think it is more likely that Irma's eyewall will only graze the coast at best. I want to be wrong about this and hope the eye wall can penetrate into Cuba more, but it will be at that juncture when the turn north will commence as well. It will be close!

NEVER, EVER SAY NEVER in the tropics and weather in general, and most importantly, with life itself!!
