Phil Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 Is Jamaica really taking this as a Cat 5?I think so..up to 160mph and still strengthening at a rapid pace. Might make a second landfall on the east coast somewhere.

BLI snowman Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 Is Jamaica really taking this as a Cat 5? Definitely possible, wouldn't necessarily bet on it. It takes a lot of things going right for a storm to maintain that kind of intensity for long, especially once it starts to interact with land and/or drier air. Either way, model trends show it being a big threat for basically every landmass between Jamaica and New England.

Phil Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 Conditions still favorable to maintain that strength??There's been some notable southwesterly shear impacting the storm for 36hrs. So far the dude has been been impervious to it, for whatever reason. Bombed over the LLC on the first attempt.

Phil Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 Eyewall replacements are pretty common in higher end storms after a period of rapid intensification. Probably will be one within 24 hours.Definitely. Might actually be bad timing for Jamaica if it completes a full ERC before landfall.  Also, that blob of convection just to the east of the hurricane is somewhat strange looking, possibly a consequence of the upper level shear? Can't imagine how strong this storm would be if shear was reduced.

wx_statman Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 Interesting. I wouldn't be surprised if 1972-73 and 1978-79 also accomplished that feat, in localized areas. I'm not 100% sure but 1972-73 is a possibility. I just checked some outlying stations and Monroe did hit 7F on 1/8/1973. I'm less sure about 1978-79. I'm not aware of any exceedingly cold minimums in the late Jan/early Feb airmass, but I haven't done a comprehensive search. I consider everything from late December into the second week of January to be part of the same long wave pattern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wx_statman Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 I believe that because it dropped to 8 here. The really interesting thing is it was that cold by 10pm. If it had remained clear it would have easily dropped to near zero by morning I remember tracking temps in the Seattle metro that evening. Lots of upper 0's/low 10's before midnight. Enumclaw shows 3F lows for both the 23rd and 24th, implying an evening minimum on the 23rd since the previous AM wasn't anywhere near that cold regionally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always been fascinated by how cold So. California got with that cold wave (i.e. -25F at Big Bear Lake) and I knew PDX hit 16F, but I never researched it any further. That's why I usually preface information when I'm not 100% with "as far as I'm aware."  I agree that most likely, and especially with a few well placed RAWS sites (a network that didn't exist before 1985), either January 1973 or late Jan/early Feb 1979 could have pulled off sub-5F readings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
