Hurricane DARBY RAPIDLY INTENSIFIES... - a podcast by Todd Nardone

.DARBY RAPIDLY INTENSIFIES...

At 1200 AM HST (1000 UTC), the center of Hurricane Darby was located near latitude 14.5 North, and longitude 122.2 West. Darby is moving toward the west near 16 mph (26 km/h). A westward motion is expected to continue for the next couple of days, followed by a gradual turn toward the west-northwest later this week. Recent satellite images indicate that the maximum sustained winds have increased to near 105 mph (165 km/h) with higher gusts. Additional strengthening is possible, and Darby could become a major hurricane later today.  A weakening trend is expected to begin

later this week. Darby is a small hurricane.  Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 10 miles (20 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 60 miles (95 km). The estimated minimum central pressure is 975 mb (28.80 inches).
