There has been very little change in tropical storm Hanna or hurricane Ike over the past several hours. Hanna continues as a strong tropical storm with maximum sustained winds of 65 mph, while Ike is a category 4 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 135 mph. The latest data just coming in to the CBS 6 Storm Center indicates the possibility of Hanna making landfall in South Carolina, with a slower and more westward progression through Virginia. This new track would take the center of the storm over Richmond Saturday afternoon. The official National Hurricane Center forecast is continuing with a more eastward track of Hanna, taking the center across the Norfolk area midday Saturday. Ike will still be a very powerful hurricane by the beginning of next week, with a good chance of making landfall in Florida.
