That last dropsonde shows Cat 3 winds at the 969mb level, just 18mb off the ground.

Eye is clearing out

That's pretty good looking for a cat 1. Praying for everyone affected by this

Pressure of 972mb by dropsodne, not as low as extrap showed.

[Ivanhater]

Where is landfall looking now?

I'd say Florabama give or take 10 miles W/E. Stay safe Ivanhater!

Thanks again yall. The worst seems offshore but can't tell overall where it is going.

That drop supports 971 and extraps 970 so not far off.

I see Sally is continuing Michael's curse which is for systems to strengthen all the way until landfall. Prayers for those in its path.

Believe NHC goes 85kt at 1000PM CDT if trends continue.

I can see 80 kt, but they'd probably want to see more than that dropsonde to go to 85.

Even I (who tends to be somewhat bullish with storms, the polar opposite of WxMan57) thought the HWRF's sim IR depiction was a tad farfetched, but when all is said and done it may not be too far off.

Another win for the HWRF

Remember that dropsonde is susceptible to gusts.

Didn't they revise the first 85 kts down to 80? So technically it hasn't ever reached cat 2 yet? Or did I misread that this morning when it was posted

I remember that Laura NE eyewall dropsonde.

That Sally girl is not in a hurry to move inland.

Banding increasing south of the southern eyewall. First time I think I've seen banding in this area on Sally. Best looking cat1 Ive seen in a while, and a massive increase in organization since this morning.

[CrazyC83]

I'd go with 80 kt given all the data so far. The dropsonde is probably a gust.

Best looking Cat. 1 since Hanna. Both well-formed hurricanes. Sally is no Barry or Isaias.

With this saturated ground, trees will be coming down everywhere when it comes ashore.

I think it’s finally time for her to get a nickname: Slow-as-**** Sally. This storm’s refusal to move is astonishing.
