OK guys, like I said, it's starting.

Recon up on NHC website shows extrap 942mb, and still 8 deg diff at the eyewall. 90kt max fl winds in SW quad, ragged elip eyewall. Surprised the winds still so low.

This was from 90 min ago on a run from the SW quad to the NE quad.

Usually we have a mod or someone who posts recon info. Guess we'll have to wait for add'l info.




You can read vortex messages on the NHC itself or just ask away, I'm happy to pm or post them to. The mods I'm sure are swamped tonight...
