I know...970. But I saw the comment on the small windfield, and the weak temp diff, and this is what I thought...the dry air is still an inhibiting factor. But as long as the mercury keeps dropping, then watch out for intensification and for winds to catch up to the pressure drop, if Wilma does get to the pools of warmer water, and shear is favorable. Remember dry air dogged Katrina and her winds remained quite low compared to the pressure drops, until she hit the warmer deep water.
BTW sat is back up and she's moving W.
