Hurricane Katia

H... I... J... K! We are already on the letter K for hurricane storm names this season. Pronounced KAH-tyah, is gradually strengthening as she moves west-northwest. She is currently 950 miles west of the Cape Verde Islands.



She is moving at 21 miles per hour and her maximum sustained winds are about 65 miles per hour.



By Monday, Hurricane Katia is expected to be at a category 3 strength and just northeast of Puerto Rico.
