The core of the storm is growing in size, meaning larger wind field and more rain. The strongest winds remain confined to a very small area around the core though. The last pass by recon in the NE quadrant, an hour ago, was missing SFMR readings for a minute and a half, which was enough to possibly miss what the storm's winds are now.

98L was supposed to be something that could impact Matthew. I haven't been following that recently. To get a better idea of the ridge, the G-IV will be out, starting 12 hour missions later today. Here are the upcoming scheduled tracks, starting with later today:

And as a real bonus, the Global Hawk will be making a possible return tomorrow. They left the equipment on the aircraft in case they did a mission outside the research period that has already ended.

Tuesday, 4 Oct. 2016:

"Global Hawk: Is tentatively scheduled for a mission over Matthew. Take off is scheduled for 0200 UTC (10PM Eastern) from NASA's Armstrong Research Flight Facility, Edwards, CA. This flight is part of NOAA's Sensing Hazards with Operational Unmanned Technology (SHOUT) field campaign."
