Looking for feedback on my IR choice. Do you like this one, or do you guys think one of the other color IR images would look better, like the rainbow?

Not necessarily. That MAY be true for a tropical cyclone's core, but Alberto is not very tropical now. The entrainment of cooler, drier air has killed off all convection and will prevent those stronger winds from extending down to the surface. It's possible that the normal 0.8 x FL wind equation may have to be lowered to 0.5 or even 0.6 times the FL wind for such a storm. The storm is passing over a couple of buoys now. So far, max winds are 40 kts. I think this storm has a few pockets of 40-45 kts north of the center and that's about it. Looks like a frontal low now.

So we still aren't considering it very tropical even though its eye is 7C warmer than the immediate surroundings? Or is that not a good indicator of tropicalness
. . .
EDIT: This isn't sarcasm, I'm actually curious here.
EDIT: OK, you answered.

Not necessarily. That MAY be true for a tropical cyclone's core, but Alberto is not very tropical now. The entrainment of cooler, drier air has killed off all convection and will prevent those stronger winds from extending down to the surface. It's possible that the normal 0.8 x FL wind equation may have to be lowered to 0.5 or even 0.6 times the FL wind for such a storm. The storm is passing over a couple of buoys now. So far, max winds are 40 kts. I think this storm has a few pockets of 40-45 kts north of the center and that's about it. Looks like a frontal low now.
So we still aren't considering it very tropical even though its eye is 7C warmer than the immediate surroundings? Or is that not a good indicator of tropicalness
Well, it probably isn't purely ET yet, but the layer of cooler drier air that was entrained into the circulation will stabilize the lower levels of the storm, preventing the vertical transfer of higher winds aloft.

Rainbow *looks* better but AVN has more color contrast, especially with lower convection like we have now. I think you're doing great.

OK then, here's the next one:
Probably sampling some of the NE quad convection which is currently over land - don't know if they'll go there or not . . .

Here's a 01Z surface plot. Note that the center is right next to a buoy. Max winds reported at that buoy have been 30 kts. The buoy to the north with 35 kts was at 40 kts at 00Z. Winds around the center at the surface are generally 30-40 kts east of the center and 20-25 kts to the west.

Your AVN shot is a little old, right? (Don't change it, it's great) So that southern shot probably went into the deepest convection there. They've certainly tried to sample the deepest convection on these Alberto runs.

standard flight level reduction should equate to about 60 knots at the surface(they are at 700mb). I know the flight level reductions are just estimates, but there is no need to let the public think that the storm is weakening when the pressure is about the same.
while I personally dont think we will see any 60 knot sustained winds without the deep convection, I would leave the 11pm local advisory at 60 knots.
