Lili Near Cuba - FLHurricane.com

5PM Update
Lili strengthens to 105MPH...

A Hurricane Watch is now in effect along the northern Gulf Coast from san Louis pass Texas to the mouth of the Mississippi River.

a tropical storm watch is in effect east of the mouth of the Mississippi River to Pascagoula Mississippi... including New Orleans and lake ponchartrain.

Time to prepare there folks. Make use of tomorrow. Listen to local news media and authorities there.

2PM Update
Lili is now a category II hurricane, and strengthening. No Yucatan to block it this time. Folks along the northern Gulf coast (especially toward Lousiana) should be watching this one closely. Note the forward speed of 14MPH. The wait won't be nearly as long as Isidore. In other words Lili is not FIzzledore.

Kyle is back from the dead again. It just doesn't want to go away.

Original Update

Hurricane Lili is nearing Cuba now, and will be moving over the western tip into the Gulf shortly. Much has not changed since yesterday. Still a potentially bad situiation in the gulf around Thursday. Upper Texas or Louisiana again.

Yesterday afternoon the site went down, but we are back up this morning, and we hope we have the situation resolved that caused the difficultly yesterday. (Grr) On the bright side, I have fixed the issue where the pop up advisories wouldn't be complete, or make the front page go missing. (Especially under stress of hurricane events)

Kyle has been downgraded to a Depression and isn't doing so well at the moment, and most likely won't restrengthen.

We'll update more as it comes in.
