Latest water vapor imagery indicates Don has lost the tail of convection that was over the Yucatan Channel earlier. This is probably due to the Northerly winds just to the east of Don.
Don is in a pinch area between a ULL to the west. and east with a ridge descending and squeezing the eastern ULL.
Kind of like a doughnut in your hands being pressed from both sides. Oblong for now.

Product: Air Force Vortex Message (URNT12 KNHC)

Remarks Section - Remarks That Were Decoded...
Maximum Flight Level Wind: 52kts (~ 59.8mph) in the east quadrant at 11:57:10Z
Maximum Flight Level Wind Outbound: 38kts (~ 43.7mph) in the southeast quadrant at 14:15:50Z

Remarks Section - Additional Remarks...
EYE SONDE MEASURED 1004MB WITH 17 KTS SFC WIND
FEEDERBAND CROSSING SE OUTBOUND LEG 70 NM SE OF CTR
COR FOR MAX OUTBOUND FL WIND IN CONVECTIVE BAND


danielw ~ Note:Eye sonde measured 17 knots of wind. This is noted to determine how well the dropsonde was placed. I believe any windspeed below 20 knots is considered an excellent drop.
