Well whatever 98L ends up doing over the next week or so at least I won't have to keep watching the same images between 03:45 and 05:45 (UTC). What can I say? I'm addicted. And man it's been a long two months.

The UKMET is taking it similar to what the GFDL is taking it too. The GFDL takes it too 144K but the SHIPS model only takes it too 61K. Big difference in the intensity. But we will see when it becomes a depression and see what they are grabbing hold onto then. GFDL


Thanks for the link. So then does 144K (times 1.152) translate to 166mph... making the projected storm a Category 5... with winds greater than 155 mph (135 kt or 249 km/hr)?

Yup and 910mb = 26.88in. So a very high cat 5 hurricane IF it pans out l ike the GFDL says. And it has done very well this year as far as track and intensity. But I will go in the middle with the SHIPS model that brings it to 61K which sond more right anyways.

It looks to me that the 06Z run of the GFDL hooks the storm northward in the last couple frames. From that view, it looks like this thing could go an unexpected direction - so everyone better watch this system.

GFDL has, however, dropped off in intensity. It's only showing Cat 3 now...as if Cat 3 was something we should say "only" about. Given that the GFDL is a fickle intensity model, and that the runs aren't dissipating this storm, I think we've got another potentially major system on our hands.
