Re: Ophelia Moves Away For Now

And it is a hurricane again, with winds of 70 knots (80 mph). The latest forecast caps the intensity at 75 knots, though, which is down from 85 knots. That seems reasonable... it is certainly possible it could get stronger than 75 knots, but considering the rather unfavorable environment that it is in, forecasting only slight intensification as the most likely scenario is the best idea.
