Re: Igor

No posts all day?

Evening update: SSMIS Microwave overpass about an hour ago shows a clear outer eyewall fully surrounding the nearly completely collapsed inner eyewall. The new eye wall appears to be 80-90nm in diameter - this diameter is based on a 1.5 degree latitude width. ERC is still well underway. Organizationally, this storm is continuing to shed outer convection and wrap convective bands into a very large ring about the storm. There is very high axial symmetry to the storm that was not present this morning or yesterday. Will be interesting what the next 6 hours bring.

Look at how much bigger Igor is vs this morning (previous post) - 2045utc:
