We've been saying 4am. That time still looks good, if not a bit earlier. Probably 75-80 mph at landfall.

SG, it might still make landfall at 5:11 or so....

You could still beat me! ;)

In the meantime, I hold my guess as is.

I thought you just had that much faith in my guess!! ;)

3:30am CDT-I doubt if they will peg it that close even. Probably will do it to the half hour. BTW, Chad, what is the definition of landfall? 1st touch of th eye by radar, official call, when the eye is centered at the coast at landfall???? Are you going to be up till it landfalls Chad?

Even before I saw Duck's 3:38 I had decided on 3:37 but then decided that NHC won't pin it that close.
