A recent ASCAT pass has shown that the winds have increased on
the western side of the cyclone to around 35 kts. While the most
recent TAFB Dvorak fix has a Final T 2.0 with a max winds of 30
kt. DPRINT has a wind maximum around 39 kt while the ADT and AiDT
are close to 32 and 33 kt respectively. Based on the observations 
from the ASCAT, the initial NHC intensity has been set to 35 kt.
 
The initial motion is estimated to be west, or 270 degrees at 3 kt. 
As a trough near the west coast of the U.S. pulls away and some 
weak ridging builds back in to the north, the cyclone should 
gradually turn toward the southwest as it feels a tug from lower 
pressures to the southwest of the system. The current NHC forecast 
track is adjusted slightly to the right of the previous track, but 
generally still in the middle of the spread in the models and close 
to HCCA. However, given that the track guidance still has a large 
spread, the track confidence is still a bit below average.  
 
The cyclone is experiencing moderate to strong westerly wind shear,
mainly due to the aforementioned trough to the north and outflow
from Potential Tropical Cyclone One-C.  Therefore, at best only 
minor additional strengthening appears likely, and the most likely 
scenario is that the wind shear will prevent any additional 
strengthening. Models forecast the environment to remain 
unfavorable and that the storm may well degenerate to a remnant low 
within 48 h. Indeed, the GFS and ECMWF simulated satellite imagery 
indicate that it could a remnant low sooner than currently 
forecast. The remnants should gradually spin down and dissipate in a 
few days.
