Just posted a question relative to Hermine

Looks like it is getting torn apart a bit on the latest sat and WV images that I have been looking at. Do you really think that she can hold together amidst the chaos that seems to be taking hold of her?

I really don't understand the NHC here. Hermine is being ripped apart by shear. Convection is diminishing and the LLC is separating to the north. THey based the increase in intensity on bogus satellite estimates. But the Dvorak estimates are assuming the center is beneath the convection, so they'll be way too high. Hermine should barely be called a TD at this point. Is there really a 40kt circulation around it? I doubt it.
