18z HWRF agrees that RI is possible.....pressure on 12z to 18z dropped from 977 to 967.....let's see what happens at 00z.

Quick question for anyone who might know. I’ve often heard mets including Webb and JB say that a storm’s close proximity to land can sometimes actually aid in developing the core and increase strength. Does anyone think that’s what is happening here?
