The sun is beginning to rise on Super Typhoon #Champi, one of the strongest storms on the planet this year.
Its massive 45 mile wide eye is surrounded by intense spiral gravity waves that resemble the rifling pattern of a gun barrel. Incredible!
The area of low pressure south of Iceland was analysed at 931hPa at 12Z this afternoon, incredibly deep for October standards. While not directly associated with the remnants of hurricane Isaias that affected the Florida panhandle, some of the energy had been fed into the system.
Some of the lowest hourly pressure readings from southern Iceland:
Fagurhólsmýri: 934.6 hPa
Vatnsskarðshólar: 935.3 hPa
Kirkjubæjarklaustur: 935.6 hPa
Akranes: 935.8 hPa
Vestmannaeyjabær: 939.2 hPa
This is an exceptional October cyclone.
The wrath of category 3 major Hurricane Isaias has arrived in Fort Walton Beach to Destin, Florida with winds gusting over 80 mph. Ears popping with wind surges
Video incredibile di Rosalba Pipitone, sempre da Marsala. Questo potrebbe essere il tornado siciliano più intenso da diversi decenni, ci sono auto scaraventate in giro. Seguiranno aggiornamenti
Insane new video of the NOAA Hurricane Hunters navigating through the 180 MPH eyewall of Hurricane Polo yesterday before reaching the massive Stadium Effect of the eye.
These are some of the bravest and most skilled pilots in the entire world.
The Hurricane Hunters just released incredible footage from inside the 892 MBAR eye of Category 5 Hurricane Polo last night.
This is what the core of the 2ND most intense Pacific Hurricane in history looks like from within.
From a tropical storm to a Category 5 hurricane in less than 24 hours!
That's what Polo just did near Mexico's west coast — an absolutely remarkable display of rapid intensification.
INCREDIBLE PICTURES!! I was sent these from Facebook of a clear funnel and probably ground circulation near Manchester around 7pm today
Beautiful stuff
🧊😲 Als ratten in de val! Meer heftige beelden komen er binnen van de intense hagelbui gisteravond over de A36 bij Besancon, Frankrijk. Autoruiten werden letterlijk kapot geslagen door de hagelbollen.
