Re: Tropical Storm Irene Enters the Northeastern Caribbean Sea

The shift was due Northwest of the last 1007mb Center fix. Or 0.46661691N and 0.4167W in 1 hour and 34 minutes.

My concern is with the Center temperatures. The vacuum is working, to a degree.
Inside eye/ center temperature is 6 degrees Celsius higher than outside the eye/ center.

I. Maximum Flight Level Temp & Pressure Altitude Outside Eye: 15°C (59°F) at a pressure alt. of 1,530m (5,020ft)
J. Maximum Flight Level Temp & Pressure Altitude Inside Eye: 21°C (70°F) at a pressure alt. of 1,519m (4,984ft)
