Hurricane Hurricane Milton

And this is just my meteorological opinion about these "blobs". I'm wondering if these blobs act like a shield or force field to protect the storm somewhat plus moisten the atmosphere out ahead of the storm to make the atmosphere more conducive for it to maintain intensity longer.

I do believe the first Blob that really got attention was with Matthew. Otherwise, I'm not sure of any other major hurricane before Matthew that has had it. I know there's been others since Matthew, but I can't think of their names.
 
I suspect shear plays a part.

just quickly check all the cat 5 , a few seem to have this , Dorian seems to be one of them.

I have been noticing that too, it’s stuck around for hundreds of miles and it’s definitely aided the fuel for Milton.

i decided to check if Wilma had something like that , i was thinking to my self if this aids with rapid intensification, and it does seem like Wilma had a eastern blob as well

i notice rapid intensification is the only thing we don't really seem to be good at modeling for hurricanes, it almost now feels like its the SVC of the hurricanes or something.
 
I think we'll have a pretty good idea around 12-15z in the morning what he'll be at landfall. HAFS have been insistent on the dry air making some serious inroads around 12z tomorrow morning.

I am less convinced than HAFS.

It'll be interesting to see what happens for sure. HWRF/HMON/HAFS-A/HAFS-B all pretty much rip apart its inner core tomorrow throughout the day. They range from a landfall at 940mb to 970mb. I'm curious to see if the 00z runs continue to go with that.
 
What the heck is going on with that blob NE of Miton? It nearly looks like a storm of its own.

Its deviating south from its projected track again
And is also speeding up in forwards motion. It’s doing something funky
