My question for the hurricane wizards is:
"How does the storm intensity affect the steering of the storm?"



The pressure level of the storm effects what steering layers of the atmosphere effect it. I'm not a met, so I can't tell you "why" this is, but it is. To see what the steering layers are, take a look at CMISS: http://cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/tropic/real-time/atlantic/winds/winds-dlm.html - the pressure of the storm is under "for TC MSLP of..." on each row.
