This storm doesn't look perfectly symmetrical. It looks like there's not a whole lot to that west side.

This looks like a 150 mph hurricane right now.

I wonder what the T-numbers are indicating?

More importantly will be the next vortex from recon coming up within the next two hours...

The CDO is what really matters. The eye currently appears to be imbedded around the bright reds of the CDO, the main core of the hurricane.

The large bursts of convection to the east are from the outer feeder bands.

All in all, the next recon will tell the story...

Now people watch that eye clear. In at the same time the pressure drops 20 millibars. Ivan did something like this.
