Felix Landfall in Nicaragua as a Category 5
Tue Sep 04 2007 07:05 AM

8:10AM Update 4 September 2007
Felix was upgraded to a category 5 hurricane at the 8PM advisory, and now is the second category 5 hurricane to make landfall in less than a month in Central America. This is the first time that two Category 5 hurricanes have made landfall in the same year. Prior to this year the last Category 5 hurricane to make landfall was hurricane Andrew.

Original Update
Felix has kept the more west than north motion throughout the system's life, and is now approaching Nicaragua as a strong Category 4 system.

The location it is making landfall will make it much more than a coastal event, and has the potential for inland damage in the form of floods and mudslides along with wind damage.

More to come later.

98L has lost a lot of punch and seems much less likely to form into anything, in fact, NRL has stopped calling it an "invest" altogether.

The area off of Georgia/Florida is still persisting, but is in no immediate position to form into a depression, but still has the potential to over the next few days as it meanders off our coastline.
