Our First Hurricane?

Tropical Depression Sixteen (as it is currently called) has formed off the east coast of Honduras and is heading directly towards us. At this moment it is heading west at a speed of 7 mph. At that speed it should reach us here in La Ceiba by Wednesday evening.
It is scheduled to increase in size and strength from a tropical depression to a tropical storm before it gets here. But, at this moment it is not predicted that it will reach hurricane strength. As a tropical storm it will dump lots of rain and have sustained winds approaching 80 mph. At this moment (11am EST on Tuesday) we have no wind and drizzles of rain.
The north coast of Honduras (where we live) is officially under “tropical storm warning”. We will keep you informed and provide you with updates. If you want to track the storm yourself you can go to the National Hurricane Center.
Please pray for us and the people of Honduras.
