Cyclone Jal is intensifying again before making a landfall. As seen from IR-BD satellite imagery,

Convection at the center has organized and seen from animation, the core has expanded giving central core more bulge!

Wind shears are relaxed with more convergence building up with divergence aloft

Jal will reach a peak Cat 1 status or a Cat 2 status before landfall as a Cat 1 cyclone
