In the tropics, Hurricane Eta underwent rapid intensification on Monday. A hurricane disaster is in the making as Eta reaches the Central American coast.
At 5 am Tuesday, Eta was located near 13.8 North, 83.1 West, about 25 miles southeast of Puerto Cabezas, Nicaragua. Maximum sustained winds were 150 miles per hour. Eta was moving west-southwest at 5 miles per hour. A hurricane warning is in effect for portions of the Nicaraguan coast, and a tropical storm warning and hurricane watch are up for portions of the coast of Honduras. Eta will bring life-threatening flash flooding and storm surge, along with devastating winds to the warning areas.
Here in South Florida, we’ll need to watch the tropics closely late this week and early next week, as what’s left of Eta reenters the Caribbean and moves generally northeastward. The National Hurricane Center’s forecast calls for Eta to regain tropical storm status. A threat to our area is not out of the question. Remember, hurricane season lasts through the end of November, and November storms have happened in South Florida’s past.
