The NHC began monitoring a tropical wave over western Africa on August 26.[109] The disturbance entered the Atlantic late the next day,[110] gradually organizing into Tropical Storm Irma west of Cabo Verde around 15:00 UTC on August 30.[111] Early on August 31, Irma underwent a remarkable period of rapid intensification, with winds increasing from 70 mph (110 km/h) – a high-end tropical storm – to 115 mph (185 km/h), a major hurricane, in a mere 12 hours.[112] An eyewall replacement cycle then took place shortly thereafter, which caused the storm to briefly be downgraded to a Category 2.[113]
Current storm information
As of 8:00 a.m. AST (12:00 UTC) September 4, Hurricane Irma is located within 15 nautical miles of 16.8°N 52.6°W, about 610 miles (980 km) east of the Leeward Islands. Maximum sustained winds are 105 knots (120 mph; 195 km/h), a Category 3 on the Saffir–Simpson scale, with gusts to 125 knots (145 mph; 230 km/h). The minimum barometric pressure is 947 millibars (hPa; 27.96 inHg). The system is moving west-southwest at 12 knots (14 mph; 22 km/h). Hurricane-force winds extend up to 25 nautical miles (30 mi; 45 km) from the center of Irma, and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 120 nautical miles (140 mi; 220 km). Interests in the Leeward Islands, the Virgin Islands, and the Dominican Republic should monitor the progress of Hurricane Irma.
