link to a great satellite shot....notice the few specs of red...typically in a hurricane this particular satellite shot has a ring of red around the core....

definitely something to watch for....for the last 24 hour no red (colder cloudtops) have been noted.....a sign of strengthening would be a sustained flareup represented in the shot as brighter colors.

unfortunately..this will be one of the last shot from the satellite (or an other weather satellites) for a couple hours as the nightly "eclipse" takes place (earth between sats and sun..no power) so we cant monitor this latest possible flareup.

I notice the local warning I posted, which is from NOAA, updated at 11:35, is at some variance with the TPC info, as posted by My favorite headache. Weird.

Howlin -

Are you in DC?

Reston here...... 20 min west. Local forecasters (radio) calling for 'windy' with 2 - 5 inches of rain.

I expect they are wrong.

Weather junkie,here!

I think you have the right idea!

Let's admit right up front that we are, in fact, weather junkies. Just get it over with. No more apologizing!

Then maybe we won't get called "drama queens!"

[dennis1x]

weather junkies arent drama queens.....you however are.
