The latest update is in from the National Hurricane Center: Now that Harold has made landfall in Texas and weakened, attention now turns to Tropical Storm Franklin moving across Hispaniola and into the Atlantic. Right now, Franklin has winds sustained at 45 mph and is moving to the north-northeast at 13 mph after making landfall in the Dominican Republic earlier Wednesday morning. Flash flooding and mudslides will be the biggest threat to the island. Franklin will emerge in the Atlantic Ocean slightly weaker. But it is expected to reorganize as it tracks farther to the north. The good news is that the steering flow in the atmosphere will keep Franklin away from the east coast of the United States, but it will bring high surf conditions.
