4:00 am CDT SUN update

Conference call currently underway with Birmingham NWS. Preliminary reports for the 4:00 am update keep Katrina at 145 mph right now, but the intensity is expected to increase to 160 mph (Category 5) before landfall. From there, it moves just east of New Orleans, within 10 miles or so, and moves north to just west of Newton by 4 am Tuesday with sustained winds of 70 mph and gusts to 90 mph, or a high end Tropical Storm.

Josh Johnson will provide more updates on the blog as well as live updates during Good Morning America starting at 7am.

Time for me to get some rest!
