Re: Felix Approaches Nicaragua
      Tue Sep 04 2007 07:59 AM

Felix has the potential to produce a catastrophe very similar in impact to Hurricane Mitch. Yesterday's weakening/reorganization phase came at a very bad time because it allowed Felix to regain Cat5 strength prior to landfall. Even though the coastal communities of Nicaragua near the point of landfall will be destroyed, the biggest impact will be when Felix moves over the highlands of Nicaragua and Honduras over the next several days. Deforestation from the proliferation of banana and coffee plantations have denuded hillsides in this region, and flooding and mudslides will be enhanced because of it. This will be another sad hurricane disaster for Central America, and I can only pray that Felix does not slow down further.
