Tropical Storm Dean Update 15 August 2007, 15:30 Hours USA CDT:
Tropical storm Dean has intensified with winds in the central core at 63 Miles Per Hour and is still on a westerly track traveling at 18 to 20 Miles per hour and is approximately 1000 miles east of the Lesser Antillies. This current track, if maintained, will place the storm in warmer waters very soon and this will cause increased intensification. Hurricane status for Dean is expected within the next 4 to 12 hours.
Those persons with interests in the area of Barbados and Puerto Rico should monitor local media broadcasts for official updates. Persons along the Gulf Coast of the US should also monitor the progress of this storm. The potential for this storm to move into the southern Gulf of Mexico, in roughly a week, is probable.
Our next update will be at 05:00 Hrs (AM) Thursday August 16 and a hurricane status report will be posted at that time.
