One thing is for sure Irma is expanding her wind field.
That is an important thing to watch. Larger wind field will produce storm surge over a larger area and a larger area of power outages and significant damage.
I think Irma ends up being more like Hugo or Katrina than like Andrew or Charley. Cat 4 with a large wind field and significant storm surge.

Continues to move W WAYYY faster than North. I know we expect a turn but the SOB needs to ease up on the west motion please.
Only way this is good is if she makes land on Cuba. Worst case is she misses Cuba but stays farther south and the north turn is less pronounced, which puts her in the gulf before she turns.

You talking about Provo Turk and Caicos? What did you see. I was looking at property there online last night. Beautiful.

Irma has now been a Category 5 Hurricane for 72 straight hours and counting which is the longest continuous period of Cat 5 strength ever recorded in the Atlantic.

Is the eye replacement cycle currently happening the reason for slight increase in pressure?
With the warmest water ahead of her I cant think of a reason to weaken at all other than sheer or dry air neither of which I think are present at least materially.

And more than likely will be for another 36-48 hours

Most current recon derived wind field looks like over Miami.

Just like it is pushing dry air out of the way rather than weakening.
Huh? Link to that info?

W: 270 deg
WNW: 300 deg
NNW: 330
N: 360/0
286 closer to WNW than W.

For those who plan on staying during the hurricane and have a generator please go buy a rabbit ears antenna for your tv
ALSO pick up a CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR. I know that you'll only put the generator outside, but if you have a loss of power, you'll probably have windows open, and you don't want CO in your house. (And there will be no one to evacuate you to a hyperbaric chamber to get your blood oxygen back to survival mode.)

Yes. The storm is spending a lot of energy on a restructure currently.

I can't get over how fricking massive that storm is.

Irma's 18z RECON data derived wind field via RAMMB.
Ever expanding & the eyewall cycle likely pushed it even more.

She is a beast. These are horrific storms but I am fascinated by weather and I can only imagine the amount of data being mined from this storm.
