only 1999 and 2005 had 5 category 4+ hurricanes.

Well lets see.. So far we are sitting at four category 4+ hurricanes.. We have DANIELLE, EARL, IGOR, and JULIA.. So if if IF Karl would make it to Cat 4 he would be our 5th.. He should be inland in less then 12 hours I believe though.

As of the 5am advisory Karl is now forecast to get up to cat 4 before landfall. 120kts is the peak strength currently forecasted.

For all we know it may already be a cat 4. We will just have to wait and see what recon finds when it makes its first pass.

Re: ATL: KARL - Hurricane - Discussion
I'm already satisfied with this season. Back in July, I thought this was going to be a repeat 2009 season. I'm calling for 6 more major hurricanes because each storm since Igor has formed into a major hurricane.

Based on last nights 11pm advisory I believe it will be sometime around 5 this afternoon that it makes landfall.

Charley is the closest US has had to this in recent times

Re: ATL: KARL - Hurricane - Discussion
If it were to move straight west and keep it's forward motion of 9mph then it would be making landfall in about 9.8 hours:

SW?
Based on the last recon mission it's been the north-east.

Looking at your Google Earth map Veracruz may escape the worst of it

Storm advancing westward, with symmetrical convection, strongest winds are usually in the NE quadrant, as the flight recon found.
