Jose continues to fight northerly shear. Last night the eye became distinct as convection exploded for several hours. Despite this NHC downgraded winds from 85 mph at 11 pm EDT to 75 mph at 5 am EDT. It is my belief that that shear relaxed some and Jose strengthened before shear increased again this morning.
