Admin Sentinel Posted September 27 Admin Share Posted September 27 The lightning in the Northern Eyewall is going absolutely bonkers right now. This thing is really strengthening right up to landfall. We could be talking hurricane gusts all the way up to NC at this point. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Sentinel Posted September 27 Admin Share Posted September 27 At this point, when Helene makes LF, it will still be strengthening. Like Michael appeared to do, we may actually see this storm strengthening over the first interactions with land as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators StretchCT Posted September 27 Author Moderators Share Posted September 27 It's finding the most water it can find. Ton of lightning. Must be terrifying there. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators StretchCT Posted September 27 Author Moderators Share Posted September 27 I don't think this wind field is accurate. Maybe aloft. And the TS force perhaps. Ahh, I found a station in Captiva that had near hurricane sustained and gusts in the 80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredible Funny enough, I made a post about this last night, as the storm was much farther south. The entire cloud system is affected by multiple things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
