NASA Prepares for Hurricane Ivan

“Preparations are under way to secure important space flight hardware. NASA’s Stennis Space Center (SSC), Miss., and the Michoud Assembly Facility, New Orleans, are getting ready to ride out the storm. Other NASA installations, from Johnson Space Center, Houston, to Kennedy Space Center, Fla., are keeping a wary eye on Ivan’s track.”

“MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS ARE NEAR 140 MPH…WITH HIGHER GUSTS. IVAN REMAINS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS CATEGORY FOUR HURRICANE ON THE SAFFIR-SIMPSON HURRICANE SCALE. FLUCTUATIONS IN INTENSITY ARE COMMON IN MAJOR HURRICANES AND ARE POSSIBLE OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS. IVAN IS EXPECTED TO MAKE LANDFALL AS A MAJOR HURRICANE…AT LEAST CATEGORY THREE.”
