INTERVIEW – JANICE DEAN – Senior Meteorologist, Fox News Channel and Author of Freddy the Frogcaster and the Flash Flood

Hurricane Harvey ‘rapidly intensifying,’ expected to make landfall in Texas as major storm. Hurricane Harvey is now being considered life-threatening and considered a “grave risk” by the National Hurricane Center as the “rapidly intensifying” storm is now forecast to become a Category 3 storm before making landfall on the Texas coast. The head of the National Weather Service said Harvey is a “grave risk to the folks of Texas.” Forecasters believe the storm, predicted to have 125 mph winds, and bringing upwards of 20 inches of rain to parts of Texas, might last for longer than expected, according to the Hurricane Center.
