She was born on March 6 0600 UTC.
she has been what u call a Major hurricane for 14 advisories and from the Unisys database these are only every 12 hours. SO she has been a major storm for 7 days roughly.

INGRID'S "DOUBLE YOLK" STRUCTURE:
BEFORE STARTING, SORRY FOR THOSE THAT MAY NOT FEEL GRACEFUL THE IMAGE OF THE EGG. THE TOP IMAGE SHOWS INGRID'S CURRENT IMAGE, AND I HAVE CHARACTERIZED AS A "DOUBLE YOLK" STRUCTURE. YOU CAN SEE THE SIMILARITIES BETWEEN BOTH IMAGES. BY THE WAY, THE BOTTOM IMAGE IS A BROKEN DOUBLE YOLK EGG IN A PLATE. YOU MAY COME WITH DIFFERENT OPINIONS AND THAT'S OKAY.

I just watched some of the footage from Croker Island on the news, and there is only one way to describe it.... WOW. The wind looks like it literally blew up the school. Also looks like there is almost horizontal rain.
Should also be noted that me bein from Australia, i havent heard or seen of a cyclone that is getting this media coverage. Its been the first story on the news for about a week now.

Welcome to Storm2k. I guess it is sunny in Brisbane (Always is when I ask someone I know there 
) - I've checked and it is, lol. YBBN 150900Z 10008KT 9999 FEW025 SCT090 24/20 Q1016 RMK NOSIG
Should be makng landfall very soon looking at the radar posted 3 posts ago.
I watched some live American news coverage streamed over the net last year for a few of the hurricames so I know what you mean about the sheer power of these systems. Ingrid is a very strong TC compared to some of the ones I saw making landfall in the USA though.
