Wow, he's making a run at Cat 4 based on satellite. Ridiculously cold cloud tops especially north of 25°.

Going back in for another pass?
looks like they did a little loop in the eyewall and didnt go for a fix on the center. I dont know anything about how their flight plans work though.
They did a wind profile run, currently tropical storm force winds at the Longitude of Tallahassee increasing to 100 Knot flight level winds at 86 degrees Longitude, then the 124 knot peak gust in the eastern eyewall.

124 FL wind at 700mb in E eyewall. The NE eyewall is likely near CAT4 intensity

The northern GOM doesn't get too many major hits where a storm intensifies until landfall.

Re: ATL: MICHAEL - Hurricane - Discussion
Michael’s been taking advantage of the improved upper pattern progged yesterday to go to about 30 hours or so. I’m not sure if it will be intensifying at landfall or it will be steady or even slightly fading. I sent out a bunch of well wishes to some of the people I know and work with in Panama City. Same for everyone here in Okaloosa, Walton, Gulf, Bay and Franklin Counties then farther inland. I left D Springs this morning and took the I-10. There were a lot of power trucks moving in and traffic wasnt bad at that time except the mobile bay bridge because a cop was standing in traffic at the end of the bridge. Didn’t make much sense but it sure contributed to the delay getting across the Bay.

Yup its about to cross 86W again soon to the east. Its been inching back that way. It will be interesting how sharp the turn is.
Last hour or so sure has teased a couple east of north wobbles. Question is, when are wobbles no longer wobbles? Here's food for thought.... official NHC forecast position for 0600Z later tonight (well, okay technically early tomm. a.m.) is 27.6 and 86.6. Tomm. afternoon at 1800Z it is 29.7 and 85.9. All I know is that i'm keeping one eye on whether Michael crosses that 86 W line before midnight. That's aside from any chance he may be south of it's early a.m. forecast point as well. Both however certainly wouldn't bode well for those east of Apalach. given the even greater extreme storm surge that could pile up further east.
Thats exactly the same observations Im making. I feel like its going to head a bit further east. We will see if the nhc is still calling it due N.
This storm is worrying me. I don't see the storm doing what the models are saying it is going to do. It gets closer and closer. Someone on tv just said it was supposed to continue north for 12 more hours. If that's the forecast, it will be in our front yard. No one is at all prepared here, in case Michael is still not playing by the rules. Forgive me, if I'm just having Katrina paranoia.

So are we witnessing that rare occurrence or will it weaken?

Re: ATL: MICHAEL - Hurricane - Discussion
Just note that if he does start to weaken before landfall, the storm surge won't. Think Katrina.

I hope this doesn't Harvey on us.
I thought we all expected Category 4 already. I'm here busy thinking if it could get to Category 5. But still, those 124 Knot Readings are insane.

Re: ATL: MICHAEL - Hurricane - Discussion
Luckily, I just caught some family members who thought they could drive up to Tennessee to see the leaves changing. I informed them that odds are I-75 will be closed in North Florida and South Georgia on Wednesday and Thursday so don't waste their time. I am so glad they are listening, this is going to make a mess. Godspeed to our Panhandle bros!
