UNISYS Water Vapor GOES East Satellite
The last two readings show a storm capable of extensive travel across Earth in a short period of time. Jose traveled a full degree latitude and three and a half degrees longitude in 18 hours. While in the open ocean that seems insignificant, but, when approaching or over land, it is extremely significant. Currently, Jose has a central pressure of 985 millibars which is an increase of 12 millibars in 18 hours. Jose has winds speeds currently of 65 knots (74 mph). That is a drop of 20 knots per hour (23 mph) in 18 hours.
As a Cat. 1 hurricane I am not willing to state Jose is dissipating. This Cat. 1 hurricane has an extensive feeder system from the equator reaching up to the Arctic. Jose is rebalancing after the resolve of Irma. I remain interested.
