Strengthening prior to landfall???

Not the sign I wanted to see, but the new forecast has Ivan go down to 115 kts, but then strengthen just prior to landfall to 120kts. Also, the new forecast is an absolute worst case scenario for Mobile. Landfall on the MS/AL border would cause Mobile Bay to absolutely inundate Downtown Mobile.

Also, still expected to be a hurricane/TS well inland.
