Hurricane Danielle Discussion Number 14
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052022
1100 AM AST Sun Sep 04 2022

Danielle has slightly improved in satellite presentation this
morning. First-light visible imagery still showed a ragged eye that
could be trying to clear out. Subjective intensity estimates from
TAFB and SAB remain at 77 kt, and the objective estimates have
risen, though are still somewhat lower. The initial intensity has
been increased to 70 kt to represent a blend of the latest
classifications.

The hurricane is expected to be over relatively warm waters and in a
region with low vertical wind shear for about another day. These
oceanic and atmospheric factors should allow Danielle to gradually
strengthen. Thereafter, the storm is forecast to move over cooler
waters and encounter moderate deep-layer wind shear which will
likely result in weakening. The NHC intensity forecast is similar
to the previous advisory and close to the consensus model aids.
Danielle is still expected to become an extratropical cyclone in
about 5 days.

Danielle is still drifting in the Central Atlantic with the latest
motion estimated at 270/1 kt, but model guidance insists a turn to
the north should occur today ahead of a mid-latitude trough over
eastern Canada. Then Danielle is expected to turn northeast with an
accelerated forward motion in about a day. The storm should then
turn east-northeastward within the mid-latitude westerly flow in a
few days. The latest forecast is similar to the previous advisory in
terms of location with a slightly accelerated along-track motion.
