Tropical Storm Omar is getting nasty!

A couple hours ago, Tropical Storm Omar was supposed to turn into a category 1 hurricane after it passed St. Maarten. After I returned from class, I saw that Omar has gotten particularly nasty and will now become a category one sometime very early tomorrow morning, and will turn into a category 2 before it passes the island around mid day on Thursday! The course has also changed slightly, which will bring it a little closer to us. Hopefully the winds will hold off at least until tomorrow afternoon so I can get out of here before Omar gets arrives!
