Update on Invest 91L
The center of the large storm Invest 91L has reached the halfway point between the Yucatan and the Texas coast. Winds continue at 35 MPH for the eastern and northeastern quadrants. It is moving towards the western Texas coast at 15 MPH. A hurricane Hunter aircraft is currently investigating the disturbance to see how well it has organized. As of the 8 AM NHC outlook, Invest 91L has an 80 percent chance of organizing enough to be declared a tropical depression or named storm. If it does get a name, it will be “Bill.”
As of 8 AM, the tracks for this storm predict that it will move through eastern Texas, then make a slow turn towards the east, and pass through Oklahoma, Kentucky, West Virginia and Virgina, finally entering the Atlantic in about ten days. The storm is fairly large, and will affect weather at least 300 miles from its center.
