Re: Weakening

NHC first put out a set of advisories at 115kt, then quickly put out a new, corrected set at 110kt. The rounding in the calculations means one is listed as 135mph and the other as 125mph. In any case, it's still a beast to be dealt with.

Latest recon did not report an eye with the storm and a 950mb minimum pressure. Max flight level winds in the NE quadrant are just 105kt. We'll see how long it takes to get it's act together.

Another excellent 11pm discussion by Stacy Stewart -- he's developing quite the (favorable) reputation amongst the meteorological community here at FSU, that's for sure. In any case, this is going to be a long night...so I'm headed out. Take care everyone...stay safe.
