Cindy Update
* At 1:00 pm CDT the official intensity was raised to 60 mph. A ship in the Gulf of Mexico reported a wind gust of 70 mph just northeast of the center of circulation, however that estimate may be just a little high. The storm is still moving North at 14 mph and we are expecting a shift to a NE movement soon.* New data in from NHC at 2:20 pm CDT:
"DATA FROM A NOAA HURRICANE HUNTER AIRCRAFT INDICATE THAT THE MAXIMUM WINDS IN CINDY ARE NEAR 70 MPH. LITTLE ADDITIONAL CHANGE IN STRENGTH IS EXPECTED DURING THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS PRIOR TO LANDFALL. "
* We are still forecasting landfall late tonight/early tomorrow somewhere between Biloxi and Mobile. Main threats for our area continue to be heavy rain and a wind gust of 30 mph is not out of the question.
* For the latest up-to-date information, check out our TS Cindy Info Desk. Josh will provide audio updates as well as updated satellite images, webcams, and the official NHC forecast track plus much more! Also keep checking the Weather Blog for updated information!
