Re: Wilma Approaching the Yucatan Peninsula

Don't these recons just continue to blow you away?

Even now, as perfect an eye as you will ever see...11 deg temp diff! still holding her own even with the inevitable slippage in pressure and wind speed. Not really enough to make any difference to those in her path. I am not jaded and am still amazed at the low pressure she has managed to maintain. Truth is that ERC was a cakewalk for Wilma.

Cozumel is just about to start getting battered with the strong SE eyewall, that will take about 5 hours to complete, and then they'll be "glad" to have only 100mph winds. They'll probably be able to start going outside around noon tomorrow. It will take that long to pass over them...about 36 hours in total.
