The system is expected to go over or near the Yucatan and then travel into the Gulf of Mexico. If the system misses land interaction with the Yucatan, this could lead to a stronger storm. It appears there is some strong wind shear near the point of landfall along the Gulf Coast. This may be good news that will limit the strength of the system.
Information from the plane will help to better determine the track and will also help analyize the surrounding area for more accurate model runs.
