NRL set Mala at 125kts, I think around 1400Z.

Looks like an ERC may be completing and the eye has not yet cleared out on IR. TMI microwave imagery from around 1400Z showed a ring of strong circulation much larger than the previous distinct eye (which has now clouded over). Very scary looking.

Guess no one else is watching Mala.

A couple hours later, it looks like Mala definitely peaked, and is starting to be impacted by land and drier air before the ERC can complete. Some land area is already being affected with the strong outer ring of convection before it has had time to weaken, the city of Bassein on the floodplain of the Irrawaddy River, and it appears that Sandoway may get hit pretty hard.
