Certainly intriguing to see intensity guidance trend a bit less impressive with how much Henry strengthens. As been stated before...intensity guidance shouldn't be taken as gospel but until there is clear-cut evidence it is wrong it can't be ignored
Curious to see what NHC does at 11 with the track but I would think we see a sizable shift west with the western edge of the cone and subsequent shift west with forecast track
Looks like cloud tops are starting to cool in the vicinity of the center with cooling cloud tops. Though much of the convection is well south of the center
All of this is minute anyway.
The only thing that matters is what Henri's strength, position, and movement is by this time tomorrow (actually several hours earlier).
The models could all of a sudden shift the track to Europe...doesn't mean anything.
Gotta start thinking of wind potential too. I mean even several hours of gusts 40-50 mph is going to produce some widespread tree damage/power outages given how wet we are and how much rain we could get.
The ulvl low has seem to trend stronger on some models. Not a crazy ULJ but looks like a streak of 50-70 knots seems plausible. Orientation too would allow for some aided ulvl divergence
Looks like the northern edge of the storm gets completely demolished with very little convection and then once convection wraps around the center/develops on the north side it goes boom
