.SYNOPSIS...Hurricane Isaias is near 26.4N 88.0W at 5 AM EDT, and

is moving north-northeast at 13 kt. Maximum sustained winds are 

95 kt with gusts to 115 kt, and the minimum central pressure is 

963 mb. Isaias will move to 28.4N 87.3W this afternoon, inland to 

31.0N 87.1W Sat morning, move inland and weaken to a tropical

develop over the north-central Gulf by Sun evening resulting in 

moderate or weaker return flow over the western Gulf through 

midweek.
