yes it is really deepening. still not to the rapid or explosive deepening yet. it is just below (1.66 mb/hr for 10hrs) rapid deepening (1.75 mb/hr for 24 hours) still this is significant strengthening.

It looks like the right quad is losing some of its umph. What would cause it? Is it just temporary?

It does appear to be exploding in intensity. Hopefully it will hit the cool waters near the coast and fade before landfall. Glad it is not approaching like at a higher speed where it would not feel the effects of the cooler water around the coast.
Seeing the eye appearing in the last few frames to.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE 6 HOURS MAKES! SATELLITE...RADAR...AND NOAA AND
AIR FORCE RECONNAISSANCE DATA INDICATE HAS POSSIBLY STARTED
A RAPID DEEPENING PHASE. THE EYE HAS BECOME BECOME DEFINED IN BOTH
RADAR AND SATELLITE IMAGERY...AND THE PRESSURE IS NOW 955 MB...DOWN
ALMOST 10 MB IN THE PAST 6 HOURS. THE WINDS ARE GRADUALLY BEGINNING
TO CATCH UP WITH THE PRESSURE FALLS AS INDICATED BY A 700 MB
FLIGHT-LEVEL WIND OF 101 KT...EQUAL TO ABOUT A 91 KT SURFACE WIND
...IN THE NORTHEAST QUADRANT.

I think it may be caused by the late afternoon shadows.
Just a thought

susieq, there's nothing really to indicate that, whether on satellite or radar. Recon pressure is now down to 947mb, further indicating strengthening.

Hey guys, not had chance to post since yesterday so heres my take on today:
I did say yesterday that the crossing over Cuba would weaken , and indeed it did. However, he was able to maintain a decent eye even though the overall structure was disrupted. This has given him a kick start into restrengthening, which he evidently is doing in earnest. Radar and satellite imagery show the eye is well defined, and he is showing signs of strengthening rapidly now. I think he will get upto 130mph, if not a little higher, prior to landfall tomorrow. I still think we could be lookng at a Alabama landfall, but will suggest a landfall somewhere between Mobile, AL, and Pensacola, FL, as a 130mph Hurricane. If the centre tracks up Mobile Bay, or just to the west, then there will be some seriously major problems with flooding, let alone from the wind. With the area still in recovery from last year, it seems they are gonna take a hammering. My thoughts are with all of you in the path of this one - i think he is gonna be worse than many of us thought earlier today.
Keep safe

Dennis has come together since leaving Cuba, but that was to be expected. Still looks like a NW heading at a decent pace. The North turn will come gradually as the storm feels its way around the ridge. There will be some wobbles that look like a straight north or straight west heading, but until a trend of more north than west starts I would still call it NW.

There is no way this is still a cat 2 with that pressure. It has to be a high cat 3 right now borderline cat 4.
