After forming near the Cabo Verde islands last weekend, Florence became a hurricane on Tuesday and strengthened to a Category 4 hurricane on Wednesday afternoon.
While Florence is likely to fluctuate in strength due to cool water and buffering winds into the end of the week, its projected path takes the hurricane over very warm water and low wind shear this weekend into next week. Florence may complete a 3,500-mile-long journey over the Atlantic and be guided right to the U.S. East Coast somewhere from the Carolinas to southern New England sometime during Wednesday or Thursday of next week.

ReplyDeleteThis headline is bogus. At This time, The models... after 5 days out, have the hurricane going any where from around Bermuda and out to see to possibly the east coast. They have no idea what it will do. It's about 50-50. Depends on how strong the ridge is that sets up to the storms north.
ReplyDeleteGet the truth.
I agree. "Scenario 1" hit land somewhere on the east side of the continent, "Scenario 2" it goes out to sea... What does that leave for scenario 3? This is 3 paragraphs of nothing. Must be the work of Dan.
