Re: Hurricane Watches up For NC/VA, Warnings Later Today

5am NHC:

Officially a 125kt storm.

Since then as a hole has developed outside the eye on IR. It appears an ERC is underway. Waiting on vortex recon to confirm, but it is slow coming in.

SFMW indicates hurricane force winds extend out nearly 70 miles in the NE quadrant.


Storm Hunter: 10.8 miles, actually. Wolfram Alpha is great

NE eyewall drop just now traveled 11 miles.
