DISCUSSION ----------------------------------- Ongoing northerly shear has caused the satellite appearance of Nana to degrade a little since the last advisory, with the low-level center located near the northern edge of an asymmetric convective burst. Reports from an NOAA Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicate that the maximum winds remain near 50 kt and the central pressure is near 998 mb. The latest indications from the large-scale models are that light northerly shear should persist over Nana until landfall. However, the guidance is in good agreement that strengthening should occur before landfall.
