Dangerous Hurricane Irma headed towards Florida or the Gulf
of Mexico…
Dangerous Hurricane Irma continues to head westward and will
pass north of Puerto Rico, Hispaniola, and Cuba, possibly brushing Northern
Cuba, then will turn north near or west of Key West, Florida, then making
landfall on Southern Florida or possibly making it into the Western Gulf of
Mexico and heading for the Florida Panhandle. Irma is a strong category 4 storm
currently with maximum sustained winds of 150 mph and could become a category 5
storm today. Wherever Irma makes landfall there will be significant damage. Irma
should make landfall on Florida Sunday or Monday depending on whether she hits South
Florida or turns into the Gulf and heads for the Panhandle of Florida.

In our area, showers or thunderstorms will develop this

slow-moving cold front approaches from the west. Highs today will be in the 70’s
in Northeastern PA, the upper 70’s to low 80’s on Long Island, and the 80’s
elsewhere, and in the 60’s to low 70’s tomorrow.
Thursday through Saturday will then be variably cloudy with
a slight chance of a shower or thunderstorm. Highs Thursday will be in the mid
60’s to mid 70’s, the mid 60’s to mid 70’s Friday, and the 60’s Saturday.
Sunday through next Tuesday then look nice with highs in the
mid 60’s to low 70’s Sunday, the upper 60’s to mid 70’s Monday, and the mid 70’s
to low 80’s next Tuesday.
Next Wednesday will then be variably cloudy with a chance of
showers or thunderstorms as the remnants of Irma pass through our area. Highs
will be in the mid to upper 70’s.
Next Thursday through Monday then look nice with highs in
the mid 60’s to low 70’s next Thursday and the low to mid 70’s next Friday
