Worst case scenario looms for Texas with Hurricane Harvey

TwitterFacebook

Hurricane Harvey is rapidly intensifying over the bathtub-warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, rocketing from a tropical depression to an 85-mile-per-hour hurricane in less than 24 hours, with more intensification to come. 

The storm is forecast to roar ashore along the middle Texas coast with maximum sustained winds of 125 miles per hour, making it a high end Category 3 storm, on Friday night or Saturday morning. 

If it hits land at such a high intensity, Harvey would be the strongest hurricane to hit the U.S. in 12 years, since Hurricane Wilma struck Florida in 2005.
