*I didn't used the [Intensity] values from the created rows in the calculated average

I do not get the opportunity to to use spatial data in my day job, so always enjoy these spacial challenges!

Gotta love those spatial tools.  Aside from the average intensity difference that several people have mentioned, my solution also show the start points to delineate  each segment on the map

I went with the "minimum number of tools" solution in this case, going with just 2 tools to calculate the average per segment. The numbers don't add up identical, as the solution doesn't just take the average within the segment but + the first value of the next segment. I chose against that as it would mean using the same datapoint for two calculations which in my opinion introduces a bias towards specific dates in the dataset.

took me a while to figure out how to make those stupid lines connected :) Also added an extra average intensity field, reflecting intensity by storm type.
