Recon in Gustav

The center is about to leave Jamaica, but must be still a bit inland or at least partly inland over southwestern Jamaica. Recon couldn´t penetrate it fully. Highest flight level/surface winds are 49 kt and pressure 992 hPa. The winds in the bands around Jamaica aren´t much weaker with 40-45 kt.
The center has to move away from Jamaica and to rebuilt a bit and then everything can happen including phases of rapid intensification
