Re: Hermine Strengthens and Heads for the Rio Grande

Hermine has really slowed down in the last couple of hours. The strongest flight level winds so far have actually been observed about 40-60 miles NE of the center. That is the part of the storm that likely will impact the lower TX coast later tonight, so those folks should be aware that conditions could be fairly intense even if landfall takes place well to the south.
It's still struggling to maintain a coherent eyewall, but it has been getting closer on more recent attempts. It is interesting to see the evolution of a storm like this on radar.
