Due to Danny's small size I wouldn't be surprised if the winds in the direct core are stronger then 75mph

It's also not upwelling much with swell at the closest bouy only at 10-11 seconds. That's very low for a hurricane and means swell energy does not extended very deep. A larger storm will generally produce swell in the 16-17 second range

Cant see tiny Danny affecting SAL much though

 

 ...it's having a similar effect on the environment out there. You can clearly see the SAL curtain bulging around its presence.  And also ..., the space/region behind is quite a bit cleared out compared to what the Meteosat was picking up prior to his ejection from Africa.

Yea , isn't that the ITCZ though where its traveled and the Sal to its north. seems some dry air in its wake in the ITCZ

Too bad the damn ridge builds back in so quickly to veer it due west; however if it didn't, the sheer would kill it.

 

I wish things would stay status quo....eh

If the system goes North of the islands it will miss most of the shear. By going North, I mean it needs to just scrape the Virgin Islands on the Northern side. The 12z Hurricane guidance continues to nudge North.
