Thanks a lot for the reply Chris.

I fully understand the load it would be to add and support another system.

The WPAC has been pretty quite up till now.

Megi is looking formidible.

Looks like the forecast track has shifted a bit north since yesterday.

Hopefully Luzon gets spared.

On another note, I was thinking it might be interesting to track dropsonde data in a system.

I was thinking something like a spreadsheet that would log drop time, coordinates, eye surface pressure, and theta-e.

I read a paper that increasing theta-e indicates increasing storm strength and if it is greater than 360K, RI is very likely.

Also eyewall inner - outer temps could be logged as well to indicate strengthening or weakening systems.
