according to the latest advisory from JTWC which has the storm at 130G160kt. The satellite imagery shows excellent poleward outflow which is ventilating into the westerlies (down around 18-20N this time of year) which is helping with the intensification. The storm is expected to peak at 140kt in 24 hours.
