ATL: ETA - Post-Tropical - Discussion

[Highteeld]

Warmer eye. Hurricane Allen might be going down.

[Hypercane_Kyle]

Now the deepest hurricane of the year, stronger than Laura.

[BYG Jacob]

I see, but that did not make sense at first.

Actually, not even the WPAC produces this kind of CDO very often. Eta resembles a SPAC system more than any other basin. SPAC cyclones are known to produce insanely cold cloudtops.

This. WPAC storms will have more pronounced banding features while SPAC tends to have smaller CDO's but larger area of visible ventilation/spin. Eta is more like SPAC

Reminds me a bit of Winston, though Winston's eye was bigger

7:00 PM EST Mon Nov 2
Location: 14.4°N 82.4°W
Moving: WSW at 9 mph
Min pressure: 934 mb
Max sustained: 150 mph

Stronger than Paloma 2008!

[ElectricStorm]

The way it's looking right now... I think we may see a special advisory coming after the recon pass.

[Kingarabian]

finally clearling out.

Thought I was on LSD for a moment.

LOL. But yeah it just comes down to the frame they use.

[Highteeld]

Raw T of 7.4... i'd estimate the eye has warmed 20 degrees since the 2320z measurement. I think a RAW T of 7.7 is next with a correct ADT center location.

[jackdets]

With the eye temps rising like that Delta T could get to C5 levels before recon even gets there. Safe to say this is one of the most anticipated recon passes in a long while

[Sanibel]

I should have stuck with my original 933 estimate...

This is a record for November Rapid Intensification...

[Aric Dunn]

rapidly warming eye now..

nearly positive with a tiny eye..

if it was not a cat 5 before it is now lol

If not, ever.

[supercane4867]

Almost there...almost.

[Hypercane_Kyle]

This is just unreal. And you're telling me this season produced this monster in November??!?

[BYG Jacob]

Obvious category 5 is obvious

[ClarCari]

Not that anyone is surprised but operationally this dethrones Paloma 2008 as the 3rd most intense November cane. Lenny is for sure next. 1932’s spot is not impossible for Eta...

[Iceresistance]

Recon is now at the point of no return.

Eye temp. now around -8C

Eyewall now around -100C

[CrazyC83]

The way it's looking right now... I think we may see a special advisory coming after the recon pass.

It would be too close to the 10 pm advisory, but that would be reflected in it.

[RL3AO]

Remember August when we were talking quantity over quality? Those were good times.
