Hurricane Irma has the most powerful winds ever recorded for an Atlantic Ocean storm at 185 mph. The dangerous Category 5 hurricane is in the Caribbean and could hit Florida over the weekend. The chief forecaster for WeatherBELL Analytics, Joe Bastardi, gave CBN News his predictions. He believes the storm will devastate the Virgin Islands and then give Puerto Rico “a bad storm,” but not hit it directly.
Bastardi says the storm will continue into the Turks and Caicos Islands before ultimately hitting Florida. “I do believe Florida is going to get hit, and it’s going to be a catastrophic event where it hits,” he predicted. “The easiest way out if you want to call it that with this hurricane is that after the Southern Bahamas, it goes west into Cuba, weakens for a while, then comes back north.” READ MORE
