2100 LT_95L Update

At 0000 GMT (0600pm) LT, 95L was located at 12.8N Lat x 71.6W Long. or 890 nm
( 1024 miles) south of east of Roatan.
It is important to note its forward speed has decreased considerably, even though the official forecast has its forward speed as 15mph. In the past 6 hours it has only moved westward by 21 nm  (24.2 miles). Meaning by my calculations, the forward speed has decreased from around 20 mph to 4 mph. Usually when storms like this slows down, it means they are intensifying and building in strength.
Winds were 35 mph and the pressure was 1007 mb.

I will return in the morning, as close to 0700am LT, as possible, with the daily weather forecast.
