Winds are impressive and they found a lower pressure 995 mbs so at 5 PM we will see winds bumped to 60 mph.

Pressure is down now to 995 from 996 earlier so this is intensifying and at 5 Pm 60 mph will be the winds.

I think it's obvious Larry is on his way to becoming a hurricane. Thanks cycloneye for the information.

Definitely strengthening.

The best case scenario could be to keep this cyclone over the warm waters for 4-5 days over the same spot because upwelling would be the inhibiting factor for further development eventually. Larry ain't going anywhere anytime soon.

I tend to agree there Stormcenter - could be within 24 hours or so.

Wow! I guess my estimate of Larry never exceeding 60 KTS looks pretty bad at this point.

From what I heard last night, it was moving South at about 2 MPH, STILL he doesn't move that much.
