Re: Franklin in the W Caribbean and 99L Problems

SFMR data also showing some stronger winds in the northeast quadrant -- which is interesting given the continued degradation in IR presentation. Even in the last hour, convective tops near the center have warmed further. With the exception of a band well to the east of the center, Franklin is completely void of any cloud tops less than -65 degrees Celsius.

Interesting indeed!
