Felix has shown us a prime example of a rapid intensification cycle and is now a Major Catagory Five Hurricane with sustained winds at 165 mph and gusts over 200 mph.
Fortunately, the windfield currently only extends about 25 miles from the center, making this a compact and powerful storm.
Tracking brings this storm into an area around Belize City and impact in Honduras. While a re-curve remains an outside possibility, this storm appears dead set on being a Central American threat. Depending on total size and landfall, this storm has the potential to kill more than Katrina.
