Will they find Otto? It's possible, in my opinion.

surface winds can't be stronger than flight level winds.

SFMR often shows (too) strong winds, when there is a high rain rate at the same time.

Intensity is probably 40 kt based on FL winds and the non-contaminated SFMR.

Even 50 knots doesn't look that bad.

45kts is certainly possible though given the systems profile I'm pretty confident there won't be a very good FL/SFC ratio given there is alot of dry air about. Still 40-45kts probably is reasonable based on the SFMR reports as well.

Interesting Aric, if thats the case then it clearly is still far more STS then tropical...

Highest winds with the deep convection, I'd still say no way can you go any higher then 45kts though without dropsonde confirmation.

well the temp profile looks pretty good. maybe a little flat but clearly has somewhat of a warmer core.
