Tropical Storm Danny: Thursday Morning Update


Tropical Storm Danny has strengthened some overnight, with maximum sustained winds now at 60mph. However, Danny isn't showing a classic tropical cyclone "look." There is still no eye, and the convection is not symmetric around the center of rotation (see enhanced IR satellite image above). The latest track estimates do keep Danny just offshore this weekend, before it accelerates along the New England coastline as a Category One storm and transitions to an extratropical cylone (IE, it loses its tropical characteristics).
