Re: Gustav rapidly intensifying moving SW
      Thu Aug 28 2008 10:32 AM

Ok, I´m a bit puzzled now. Surface winds up to 76 kt in the NE eyewall??? Flight level winds were 67 kt and very heavy rain rates! But the SW part is considerably weaker and center pressure around 986 hPa. Let´s see the vortex data message!
The satellite reprensation is breathtaking! Must have been a very bumpy recon ride!
edit: Ok, the 67 kt are confirmed, but they didn´t report the 76 kt surface winds. Must be absolutely wild in there: center made a notheastward jog!!! And eyewall must be less than 50% complete.
Alltogether: Looks like, that we have Hurricane Gustav again!
edit2: Ok, an explanation for the strenght in the NE/E and the realtive weakness in the SW: If you look on the last microwave pass, you see the mass of the extremely strong convection to the east and the center open to the W/SW!
