Re: Hurricane Lane - Now forecast to enter the Gulf of California -

Indeed. Lane is deepening at a very impressive rate tonight - with what appears to be a pretty tight little eye. I hope we get to read some more recon before he makes landfall, because if what is going on tonight is any indication, I would not be entirely surprised to see Lane make landfall as a Gulf of California/coastal Mexico - and even somewhat inland - nightmare. Forget Cat 3, he looks like he wants to go Cat 4+



Additionally, Lane is focusing so much very deep and concentrated moisture, that wherever this stuff ends up in the states - be it feeding the severe weather-triggering front this weekend, the southwest, Texas, or some combination of these - will be sure to see heightened risks of torrential rains.
