Major hurricane Delta.

Weer een cat 3 systeem met 185 km/h nadat hij bij de passage van Cancun even afzwakte tot cat 1 met 140 km/h.

Een landfall in Amerika als cat 3 systeem wordt steeds waarschijnlijker.

Reports from an Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicate 
that maximum sustained winds have increased to near 115 mph (185 
km/h) with higher gusts.  Delta is a category 3 hurricane on the 
Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale.  Additional strengthening is 
possible tonight.  Some weakening is possible as Delta approaches 
the northern Gulf coast on Friday, with rapid weakening expected 
after the center moves inland.

Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 35 miles (55 km) from the
center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 160 miles
(260 km).

The minimum central pressure just reported by the Hurricane Hunter 
aircraft is 959 mb (28.32 inches).
