Definitely not stacked. Seems to be spitting out eddys or reforming a center somewhere...

What? This is not correct.

I see no signs of vorts being spit out anywhere.

I don't see any vorts being spit out either. What I do see is that the convection that was trying to wrap the center a while ago now appears to be diminishing. Is it the fact it is moving away from radar or is anyone else seeing this? Definite WNW movement for now which I don't like.

I think he may be talking about a collapse of an old center and formation of a new one NW of the old one seen in Tampa radar.

I saw a circ out ahead of the storm west of the main storm center.

Looks like the TPW feed from the Carib is no longer being pinched off by Cuba.
Could start to ramp up a little earlier than I thought.
Hot tower fired off SE of the CoC within the last half hour.

First recon pass..1002mb.

[TexasF6]

Almost like a mirroring meso west of the main center?

[bella_may]

First recon pass..1002mb.

Isn’t that lower than the last?

[Ubuntwo]

Pass finds a few SFMR readings around or over 50kts.

First recon pass..1002mb.

Isn’t that lower than the last?

Yes, around 2mb. Pretty impressive considering there has been very little in the way of convective blow-ups.

[Aric Dunn]

they also missed the center slightly to the right.

[SunnyThoughts]

IS that the NOAA plane or the HH obs? I know they are both out there...I think NOAA was ahead of AF

Rapid fire towers as the upper troposphere starts to cool off approaching dusk.

Probably 1002-1003 mb or so.

[Aric Dunn]

Probably 1002-1003 mb or so.

24 kts of wind. missed the center. could be as low as 1000mb

Drop in the north mid GOM, sampling the shear axis.
Or should I say, the NOT-Shear Axis

[GCANE]

That tower is really kicking butt

That tower is really kicking butt

Spewing some serious cirrus.
Going to be game changer and Recon has a front row seat.
Wish they had their radar available to see.

Until there are more intense thunderstorms firing over the center, there will not be too much deepening.

Hope the models have the lower shear environment factored in.
