10:00 PM SAT Katrina Update

Newest numbers in from the NHC:

Position: 25.0 N 86. 2 W (335 miles southeast of the mouth of the Mississippi River)
Winds: 115 mph
Gusts: 140 mph
Movement: WNW 7 mph

Latest Satellite imagery suggests that Katrina has a closed eye, which we may be able to see more clearly soon. It underwent several eyewall replacements today, but appears to have one dominant eye wall which is about 45 miles wide. We do anticipate instensification overnight. This is moving into the warmest waters and should pick up speed as it makes its way towards the coast. Coming up a little later I will post some things to do in order to be prepared for this hurricane!
