WITH RADAR DATA CONTINUING TO SHOW WIDESPREAD RAINBANDS OVER THE NORTHERN SEMICIRCLE. HOWEVER...THE CENTRAL CONVECTION IS DECREASING...AND THE CENTRAL PRESSURE HAS RISEN TO 994 MB. RECENT SURFACE OBSERVATIONS HAVE SHOWN 35-40 KT SUSTAINED WINDS. SO...THE MAXIMUM INTENSITY IS MAINTAINED AT 45 KT ON THE PREMISE THAT THE MAXIMUM WINDS WERE NOT SAMPLED. AS BEFORE...WHILE LITTLE CHANGE IN STRENGTH IS LIKELY THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD...HANNA IS EXPECTED TO LOSE TROPICAL CHARACTERISTICS IN 12-24 HOURS. THE INITIAL MOTION IS NOW 040/23. HANNA IS ENTERING THE WESTERLIES AND SHOULD ACCELERATE NORTHEASTWARD FOR THE NEXT 24-36 HR..FOLLOWED BY A RAPID EASTWARD MOTION. A TURN TOWARD THE NORTHEAST WITH SOME DECELERATION IS POSSIBLE AFTER 96 HR. THE MODEL GUIDANCE IS FAIRLY WELL CLUSTERED AROUND THIS SCENARIO...AND THE NEW FORECAST TRACK IS ESSENTIALLY AN UPDATE OF THE PREVIOUS TRACK.
