Matthew trying to make a comeback

Well Matthew has started to refire again so he may not be
on his way out as the NHC has suggested in the last advisory.

The system will go through these cycles until it finally reaches ground and dies. It appears that it will be battered with shear for the remainder of it's life. Matthew still offers minor wind and potential torrential rain. When the system strikes the Louisiana coast, let's just hope it's in one of these "down" cycles....

LOL

It'd be nice if the center was in the convection. :lol:

It's a TD now.

It will likely be down graded all together by 11am or 5pm this evening :wink:

In Matthews defense I've seen worse.
The center is still well defined and convection trying
to build around the center. I wouldn't write
him off just yet.

in just an 2 hrs we have seen a completly open center, to one where thunderstorms are getting entrained around the system. As some mets were saying last night the shear is not as bad in the central and eastern gom as in the west. Possible that Mathew is getting away from the stronger sw shear into a little more favorable area.
Also noticed its moving more east than north, so right now its apparant its moving ene as opposed to ne, for how long who knows.

Buoy 42001 had a wind gust to near 45mph in the last hour with sustained winds fairly close to TS strength.

the convection is still being sheared to the east. If the shear subsides and the convection wraps it may strengthen some :wink:
