Tops warming on IR loop

I think she's probably done with strengthening.

I really should take TWC with a grain of salt, but Dr. Steve Lyons did say that that's not indicative of it strengthening or not, just that it means rainfall won't be as heavy. And the warming may only be temporary too.

It's been a pulsing system all along. Chances are it cranks again late tonight and strengthens throughout the morning hours. Trouble is, it's only got until the morning before it's already inland. So if it pulses up late, there could still be some heavy weather. If not, well it's only a tropical storm anyway. It's nice out here tonight. There has been some intermittent light rain and a gust or two, but nothing serious. I've got a 6 pack of Abita Wheat and a 5th of Appleton's rum just in case decent rainbands decide to head on over this way.

Like Steve said, it's probably just going through one of it's flare up / flare down pulsating cycle things. Been watching it do that all day.

With the most recent image, it appears to be falling apart.

I disagree. If anything, it looked like a little yellow or orange is trying to wrap around the center of circulation. It may appear subtle, but this storm appears to instead be getting better organized to me.

Just because the convection has weakened a little doesn't mean, in my opinion, that it's getting weaker. I believe that this will be a hurricane at landfall, but we shall see.

She almost looked that bad earlier this evening before popping another flare. I don't know what to think about this. 989 mb? Sure doesn't look like it, but hey...what do I know?
