Re: Hurricane Rita Approaches Texas
|
There is no sign of increasing shear affecting the storm yet and outflow seems to have improved slightly, if anything. However, as long as Rita continues to have an eyewall malfunction, it isn't going to do much intensification and the max wind speed will continue to be less than what the central pressure would suggest. Rita may also be a little more susceptible to wobbles as long as the eyewall is in a state of trying to reorganize.
