Erin's central pressure was yesterday in the 99s, and it is now in the 920s on the way to the teenagers.
This makes the fastest in -depth Atlantic Hurricane in front of 1 September. Beat Emily 2005, with a lot.

With a central edition of 917 MB on Saturday, ranks as the second most intense Atlantic Ocean in the past 50 years prior to today's date, only Hurricane Allen in 1980.
Rapid intensification is becoming more and more often for
It is predicted that storms such as it occur more often due to climate change, scientists say. One Study in 2019 Found that, for the Strongest 5 percent of Atlantic Hurricanes, 24-hour Intensification Rates Increased by about 3–4 Mph per decade from 1982 to 2009. Authors of the Study, in Nature communicationwrote.
Hurricane scientists generally agree that although the total number of tropical storms and hurricanes may not increase in a warmer world, such background conditions will probably produce more intensive storms such as in them.
According to the website of the US government. GOV web site takes place this increase in the intensity of tropical cyclones (TCs) as a result of human being caused by humans.
“The share of serious TCs (categories 4 and 5) has increased, possibly due to the anthropogenic climate change,” wrote a coalition of authors. “This share of intense TCs is expected to increase further, which means that a larger part of the storms with more harmful wind speeds, higher storm floods and more extreme rainfall percentages entails. Most climate model studies project a corresponding reduction of the share of cyclones with a low intensity, so the total number of TCs is to remain.”
To date, the tropical Atlantic has seen a lower overall activity than normal. But with Erin's lifetime and intensity this season would soon have to reach and exceed the normal levels of accumulated cycloneergy, a measurement of the total activity of a season. The Atlantic season usually peaks at the beginning of September, with the majority of the storms that form between the beginning of August and the beginning of October.
Prediction models indicate the likely development of more hurricanes in the coming two weeks, but there is no clear consensus about whether they will influence land.
