Hurricane Maria has been downgraded to category 2, but is projected to ramp back up by Thursday.
The National Hurricane Center’s reclassification means Maria is no longer a “major hurricane” but still a threat to the Caribbean. This new general hurricane status means it will have winds ranging from 74 MPH and 110 MPH.

NHC also projects that the storm will re-escalate by Thursday morning to its “major” status.
Maria is currently near the Dominican Republic and tracking northwest.
