Hurricane Dean
As of 8:35pm, 8/20/07: Winds: 160mph G: 190mph
                                              Movement: W 19mph
                                              Pressure: 914mb (26.98in.)
                                              Position: 210 E of Chetumal, Mexico

Numerous Hurricane/Tropical Storm watches and warnings have been issued.

A recon flight currently investigating Dean has found that winds are up to 160mph making him a CAT 5.  A eye-wall replacement cycle looks like it is about to begin, but this shouldn't weaken Dean before landfall near Chetumal, Mexico.  Dean will most likely remain a CAT 5 until landfall.  After crossing the Yucatan, he will re-emerge into the Gulf of Mexico still as a hurricane and may strengthen again before hitting the mainland of Mexico.  Second landfall intensity could approach major hurricane status.
