WILMA IS NEAR ITS MAXIMUM POTENTIAL INTENSITY AND FURTHER STRENGTHENING IS NOT ANTICIPATED




This means that with current understanding in physics, the combination of all the parameters like sst, shear, background pressure, upper air temp, etc etc, point out that the maximum intensity that could be reached is reached. In order to strengthen furter, higher sst's are needed, which means that Wilma is using the available energy about 100% efficient, which is supported by MPHI, where 880 is about the lowest pressure that can be reached (apart from Wilma's own influence on that model).
