Re: Ophelia

My guess would be that what you see is a sign of intensification and a closing off of the COC witrh convection. If it can maintain that structure the storm can now deepen a bit. Previous presentation suggested dry air into the center open on the north and east at times. The location of that COC seems to be a bit SW of the previous interpolated center in my opinion.
