Re: Hurricane Dolly Approaches Brownsville

NHC Advisory 12B, Issued at 8AM CDT, has maximum sustained winds increased to 95 mph, right on the threshold of becoming a Category 2 Hurricane. They predict some more strengthening before landfall, and it looks like Dolly will become a triple digit wind intensity storm before landfall, just a little bit stronger than what the Forecast Intensities have been calling for.

And those camera shots show just how nasty it already is on the Texas coastline with the center just offshore.
