Re: Still 35 knots

Agree James, the circulation does seem to have expanded towards the west, and is now affecting both parts of Florida and Georgia. With the pressure now down to 1004 mb, it normally follows that the winds will increase, so expect to see a stronger storm possibly at the 12z advisory if not at the 15z advisory. Based on the improving organisation, Alex seems to be taking benefit of the improving upper-level conditions too. I think recon will find a stronger storm when they go in this morning.
