Re: Lee's Remnants moving over the Southeast, Watching Wave east of Caribbean

11pm officially upgraded to category 4:

946mb pressure
135mph winds

However, in the last hour, the cyclone has undergone some structural changes. Not sure if it is trying to start a new ERC or not, but if so, it's trying to make a enormous eye on the north. That band is separated from but tightly wrapping the core on IR on the SE through N portion and does not exist on the remaining 2/3rds of the storm. Strange evolution if it is an ERC, but there is no dry air entrainment evident there.
