ATL: HANNA - Remnants - Discussion

[TexasF6]

Reed Timmer saying it is a Cat2 now?

[cybercane]

When it does tighten up and swing that south band around corpus is going to get hammered, 50-60 mph gusts here, been driving out by the ocean dr, got interviewed by channel 4 SA news while I was there. The storm surge is wicked already and the wind is blowing doors out of the gas station. #factsnotfear

[FireRat]

104 knots in the SE eyweall at around 6,800 feet from brownsville radar

hmmm...

104 kt at 6,800 ft
101 kt just below 6,000 ft
99 kt at 4,500 ft

This should eventually mix down to the surface, also at that rate, assuming a linear change this suggests about 85 to 88 kt at the surface. All things pointing to a Cat 2 real soon.

Looks like the HUrricane man will have to wait for his 50th Eye penetration if he stays where he is at.


Hanna is moving WSW now..

[wx98]

Hanna managed to find the farthest west point it could to make a Gulf U.S. landfall.

[Aric Dunn]

The eye appears to be contracting rapidly now that the western eyewall has begun hitting the coast..

last chance to deepen is now..

Hanna managed to find the farthest west point it could to make a Gulf U.S. landfall.

What if the Atlantic is playing with us

[wx98]

If that eye fills in completely on the west side, it will be roughly 25 miles wide. This would also delay landfall by a couple more hours.

[Aric Dunn]

The eye literally just halved itself in like 30 min..

[eastcoastFL]

40 dbz going up to around 25,000 feet in the SE eyewall as well

What is a dbz?

What is a dbz?

dBZ (should be typed like this) is a measure of energy return to a radar (reflectivity)

https://webcams.windy.com/webcams/stream/1486829163 the storm surge is getting dangerous. I've never seen the waves above Bob Hall Pier.

It's a measure of radar reflectivity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DBZ_(meteorology)

I thought the feeder band was falling apart as it got inland.
I was wrong, its just snapped back big time.

[wx98]

AF plane performing the first center pass now

[GCANE]

Here we go.
Tornadoes may be the worst part of it.

That’s great footage. Truly amazing power from the ocean

[aspen]

AF307 plane is recording consistent >80 kt FL winds, and it’s still not at the center.

Whoa
