I dunno...the inner core is still well defined, flight level winds are increasing...any decent increase in convection could start dragging those stronger winds down to the surface.

GOES floater with superimposed SSTs. The SSTs should allow her to maintain or strengthen very slightly once back over water. Ventilation in the upper troposphere is excellent as shown by WV analysis. The dip in the jet stream off to the west is helping ventilate her even more. Dry air is the main culprit for the weakening convection though:

Do you know the latest pressure found by recon? How soon will she get back over water? I pray that my relatives in Atlantic City,NJ will be fine.
