I don’t remember the actual pressure drop/x time basis for RI, but NHC takes it to 70mph at the 11 am advisory. It’s a small system. Also, I don’t trust radar for depiction without knowing how far up is being sampled. Many times it will show something presented like a Hurricane that ends up being at the mid-levels or displaced by the angle and height sampled. If the radar presentation being shown here is close to the surface, I’d be more likely to buy it. Imho, Gordon doesn’t look all that great on visible. It’s not terrible, but it doesn’t depict a rapidly improving system. It does show more concentration blowing up near the center so the old convection to the east will probably die off as the new burst is closer to the center.
