Re: Last night's recon abort

Last couple frames of IR show a rapidly reforming central core. SSMIS microwave overpass just went over and we have a very well defined strong eyewall shown on microwave.

It appears that all the disruption we saw earlier today has gone and the storm is now strengthening again.

We should have a Hurricane Hunter in the storm sometime soon, but no data coming from it yet so I don't have a clue where it is, or even if it took off.
