Ophelia
|
Ophelia continues to improve on satellite, as it is continually generating deep convection and there is evidence of an anticyclone building over the storm. There is a some lightning activity in the would-be western eyewall, but there isn't much going on in the eastern half of the storm at the moment. Wind speeds seem to be slowly increasing on radar. It is trying to intensify, but it will only intensify slowly until it can wrap some convection all the way around the center of the system.
