Hurricane Delta Strengthens To Major Category 3 Storm.
BLITZER: We have more breaking news coming into "The Situation Room". The National Hurricane Center have just said that Hurricane Delta is now a major category 3 storm. Our meteorologist Tom Sater has the newly updated forecast. What does it say, Tom?</s>TOM SATER, CNN METEOROLOGIST: Well, currently, we have the storm center about 345 miles just south of Cameron, Louisiana. We expected this to not only intensify to a category 3 strength but now we're going to watch the storm grow in size. The wind field is going to broaden. It was a category 4 before it moved into the Yucatan. And even though it dropped in intensity to a strong category 2, south of Cancun, we can report no fatalities but power's out and there was damage. We were expecting this category 3 hurricane to maybe drop in size as well or strength. Get down to a category 2, all the models and incredible agreement taking this again to the state of Louisiana. The warnings are in effect almost the same place they were six weeks ago today when Hurricane Laura moved in into category 4. We could see this make landfall, that is a strong category 2 but a 3. We have 30,000 homes that were destroyed when Laura moved in. And you can see just how close they are right now. We could have this come in within 15 miles of where Laura hit around 7:00 tomorrow night, Wolf. This is could be devastating as 20,000 are still in hotel rooms around that part of Lake Charles.</s>BLITZER: Yes, I hope everybody takes precautions immediately. Tom Sater, thank you very much.
