It's not stationary but I think I could walk faster than it's moving. But since it's over water, I can't swim faster than it's moving. So... 😂 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin MaineJay Posted September 21, 2022 Admin Share Posted September 21, 2022 3 hour old microwave pass shows concentric rings around the eye. Pretty well structured. Might be tightening up the inner most eyewall for a replacement cycle. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceresistance Posted September 21, 2022 Author Share Posted September 21, 2022 Are you THAT serious JetBlue!? They apparently flew through the eye of Fiona while she was a category 2, and the pilots had the absolute Nerves of Steel to do so! I can't find the Tweet that has it, but it has been confirmed by either webberweather or Andy Hazelton. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin MaineJay Posted September 21, 2022 Admin Share Posted September 21, 2022 A 1 hour old microwave shot shows the eyewall kinda spiraling outward. I think it could be considered that the inner wall is open on the SW corner, but there is that more secondary wall that I'd guess it's contracting as the eyewall tries to reestablish itself more coherently.

Canso, NS EPS members I've never been to Canada, much less that far north or east, but I can't imagine the area is prepared for storm surge like that. I know they get very low pressures with Nor'easters, extremely strong winds, and storm surges... but this is on another level. I wish there was an easier way to see the surface winds overlapped in this time period. I think the bay area would get the worst of it due to long-lived very strong southeasterly winds., but obviously the area that receives the initial landfall is in trouble.

Admin MaineJay Posted September 21, 2022 Admin Share Posted September 21, 2022 I love this view because you can see the Gulf stream. It reaches all the way up to about 38°N along Fiona's track. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
