9/1/2011 Hurricane Katia Update

With the new month of September starting, I also have a new Hurricane I am tracking. Hurricane Katia is a minimal Hurricane with sustained winds of 75mph (74 is Hurricane criteria). Currently, Hurricane Katia is forecast to become a Major Hurricane (Winds >110mph) on Sunday Morning. Below is the NHC's 5 day forecast. It appears Katia could pose a threat to the Eastern US. Extrapolating from the 5 day, it would appear Katia would split the field goal between the Bahamas and Bermuda. Katia will have to be watched!
