There seems to be sufficient evidence now to bump the winds iup to 110-115 kts, even considering the less-than-ideal satellite presentation and inner core organization. If it does finally close off its eye at some point and become more symmetric in the next 24 hours, that will be bad news.
Latest recon has the pressure down to 950mb.




It looks pretty symmetric right now, to me, just looks less than ideal in terms of not having a nice eye showing up (yet, I'll go ahead of say, given that pressure!). If the trend continues, it will definately be bad news for the Bahamas and the Keys... and points beyond.

Do we know for sure that the G-IV is in the air now?
