Re: 114 Knots at Flight Level!

Y'know I've been mainly looking at wv and IR loops tonight, but I just took a quick look at the visual. It doesn't show the lack of solid organization like the others, just that things are a little 'fuzzy' but I'll say this...the overall cloud structure is, perhaps only coincidentally, very similar to the strong "buzzsaw" signature you can get with Cat 4. All this hurricane has to do is just get that core organized, which is occuring painfully slowly, and I bet she'll spin up quick. Of course that could fail to happen before she runs out of ocean real estate.
