Small hail is usually indicative of a storm trrying to gain More intensity. Also unnerves the flight crew to some degree.
Imagine hail hitting your car while traveling at 300 mph instead of 60mph.



The 8am advisory mentioned that the satellite presentation of Dean over the last several hours hinted at some weakening, yet all signs I have read from the recon - small hail, and pressure now down to 920mb according to one report I saw - indicate that Dean is on the verge of the Cat 5 threshhold, if not already on the other side of it. Why did the NHC mention the possibility of weakening based upon satellite images?

Edit: Read latest vortex message which shows pressure actually UP to 929mb, so go figure
