The newest NHC depth forecast has been amplified from the past 1 and explicitly phone calls for immediate intensification as the cyclone crosses the northwestern Caribbean Sea. The method is forecast to tactic the Cayman Islands and Cuba as a strengthening hurricane, with further intensification probable as soon as it emerges in excess of the heat waters of the southeastern Gulf of Mexico. In fact, this forecast calls for the technique to strategy the Florida peninsula as a major hurricane by working day 5.

The storm’s 5-day training course shows it heading north by Tuesday about Cuba and then heading to Florida’s southwest coastline as a Group 3 hurricane with 115 mph winds and gusts of 140 mph by Wednesday morning.
