Moving: W at 9 mph
Min pressure: 941 mb
Max sustained: 125 mph
Over the past 3 hours Irma has been going west and has slowed. The slowing has been anticipated as a prelude to its NW-N turn. In light of this it probably will not go much further west than the track of this am. Pressures are rising and winds have decreased to Cat 3 status, and they should continue to decrease.
We'll continue to watch. No change in its track for now.
