Since I always seem to overestimate these "what will recon find" predictions, I'm going with a conservative 120 kts and 941 mb- with the only rational being the winds haven't caught up to the structure yet- but they will by morning...


931mb. FL 132kts

The recorded wind speeds decreased as the recon aircraft moved closer to the center of the storm. It is nowhere near the eyewall yet. What gives?

All observations are in Tecumseh, OK unless otherwise noted.

Winter posts are focused mainly for Oklahoma & Texas.

Take any of my forecasts with a grain of salt, refer to the NWS, SPC, and NHC for official information

We'll see more of the NE eyewall but I reckon Lee is a Cat 5 now. Or at the very least, 135 kts.

Yeah, I think daring Lee to beat Jova was probably not the best idea :lol:

Unless explicitly stated, all info in my posts is based on my own opinions and observations. Tropical storms and hurricanes can be extremely dangerous. Do not think you can beat Mother Nature. Refer to an accredited weather research agency or meteorologist if you need to make serious decisions regarding an approaching storm.

With that data, I would set the intensity at 135 kt. I'd want to see the flight-level winds a bit higher to go with a category 5 intensity. We'll see what the NHC says. I'd expect an update or special advisory soon.

Bruh it’s a Cat 5 already. This is absolutely insane. Sub-910 here we come.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.
