Re: Dean v. Louisiana?

5pm advisory is out, with absolutely no changes to intensity or forecast to speak of. I'm not sure what the recon status is, but it would surprise me for the pressure to not start plummeting at any time now, and the winds to really go up in a hurry - and yes, I'm aware that they're already at 150.
I would totally agree. I thought that Dean's intensity would drop a bit this morning/afternoon, but it appears that the storm was strong enough to bear the brunt of this and not lose any intensity.
As well, it looks like Dean will clip the warm eddy south of Hispanola, which adds to the bullets in the storm's favour...
I'll say next recon pass: 923 mb, with borderline 5 intensity, 11 pm advisory, cat 5. Jamaica looks to be in bad, bad shape
