Moving too fast to intensify. Needs to slow below 10-12MPH to strengthen.
Read Issac's Storm-the very best real life re-telling of the 1900 Strom that hit Galveston.

Issac's Storm was very factual. My grandfather survived the 1900 storm in Galveston & we grew up on storm stories. He died in the early 60's. The things he told us were exactly the same as the book.

Read Issac's Storm-the very best real life re-telling of the 1900 Strom that hit Galveston. I endorse it too. It's a great read and would make for a heck of a movie if done well.
