away from the tiny island of st. croix, about 135 miles away from san juan. the central pressure with this hurricane is down to 909 million bars and why that is important is because it's a sign ever its intensity which makes it a top ten. the and the pressure may still be dropping as this eye barrels towards st. croix. we can also pick it up on radar out of san juan and the eye incredibly small a sign ever it's ' intensity and all of the rain bands continuing to completely cover the islands including just about all of puerto rico let's look at the track because we believe that it will be obviously imminently affecting st. croix and maybe even st. john and st. thomas. st. croix didn't get hit as hard with irma. there's the central pressure that i said is so terrifying and then potentially a hit on puerto rico

strength. that hasn't happened since 1928. theoreticals last time they were hit by a category five. that would also be catastrophic. beyond that and that happens tomorrow morning it moves probably north of his pan yoal a, north of the what ham as and turk and cake owes and eventually take it up the east coast but off the coast missing florida, missing the islands. however, we're talking about a cone on sunday and we'd still need to be aware that much could change with that. continue to monitor what's going on with this devastating storm. i just wanted to show you you that the hurricane force winds shall about to hit st. croix. that's going to continue overnight. it starts tomorrow morning with the hurricane force winds on san juan and they will have to deal with it throughout the day. it's not going to exit them until wednesday evening and then we'll watch the winds, the worst of them stay offshore at least on the current path. we get another update from the national hurricane center and
