Re: Recurve is the Name of the Game

I see Earl at 15.3/38 now. it is very isolated, and surrounded in dry air. If the SAL prevents the convective processes from occurring there is virtually no other energy source for Earl to grab and strengthen. It has to manufacture its own or it will starve. Visible convection is away from the center. The circulation however is well established and that should allow better organization, which in turn will allow it to strengthen.
