Harvey may have been the first Hurricane Texas since 2008
The tropical depression Harvey is expanding to become the first hurricane to land in Texas since 2008.
Jeff Masters, co-founder of Weather Underground in Ann Arbor, thinks Harvey reached the coast on Friday and then reached power. 'I expect category 1, but definitely do not exclude 2. '
The most devastating cyclones belong to category 5 on the Saffir Simpson scale. Nine years ago, Ike (C2) raided the Texan country. Harvey is still 750 kilometers southeast of Port Mansfield.
