There has been a 7.1 Mag earthquake in Mexico City too.. I wonder if this is anything to do with Maria?  http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/mexico-earthquake-today-city-latest-updates-today-magnitude-damage-a7956251.html

Difn't that happen with irma too, well of the coast of mexico that time, but similar mag.

Two ec shots that show how much closer to the us east coast Maria is getting on the more recent runs.

Recon  finishing another pass winds just about cat 4 now in the outer wall and she's just starting to intensify that wall again. Winds in inner down to cat 2 now.

From Puerto Rico, Inland about 20 miles west of the most western point.

It's this crazy guy again, flew out to Puerto Rico to film the hurricane. When I saw his videos in the Keys, I wasn't too scared for him. But this time, I am:

The radar site is about to take a direct hit, would be surprised if it survived it!

aaaand it's gone.

Will be interesting to see the path Maria takes over PR. if it continues on its current path and exit North West as per ECM then it will encounter the mountains of PR which may weaken it somewhat. If it tracks more northward then it will be impacted less.

IS the NWS radar? I thought it was based in San Jaun ?

Latest image from there was 10.50

No it's further south. You can just about make out the black hole where the site is, keep going south from San Juan until you get to the outside of the green flash flood warning boxes...

 

It says San Juan, but it's not actually in San Juan!

TJUA HAS MALFUNCTIONED AND IS INOPERABLE. AN ASSESSMENT OF THE PROBLEM AND ESTIM
ATE ON RETURN TO SERVICE WILL BE MADE ONCE TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS RESIDE.

For "malfunctioned", read "blown away".

Silly question I know, but has anyone got a linkie to a streaming webcam in the area, including Turks and Caicos? I can't find a thing, but I have a real blind spot when it comes to finding them. Left to my own devices I usually find one that updates once a fortnight... sigh...

You could try Facebook's live map. There's some pretty severe conditions being broadcast from various places in Puerto Rico atm.
