Re: Humberto Landfall
|
While I did think Humberto would strengthen prior to landfall, I didn't think TX/LA would have a 75kt landfall on their hands. It really did look like there was no shear around that storm.. and once the eyewall got sorted out.. a hurricane was born... another oddity of the season.. we now have the most rapidly intensifying storm prior to landfall, and first year of 2 cat 5's landfalling at one time.
As for TD 8, it's getting harder to locate the centre.. still a chance to intensify and reach TS, though.
