Hurricane Dorian

[Thundersnow]

The northern eyewall is grinding the coast NE of Wilmington as the eye is passing over Cape Lookout. It appears it will ride up the Outer Banks, at least for a little bit before it continues out to sea in the direction of the Canadian maritimes. Expected to transition to a hurricane-forced post-tropical storm toward Nova Scotia this weekend. Winds are currently at 90mph.

Coastal New England may get some outer bands as the center stays well off shore as it continues NE.

Thank you for sharing that. I’d only come over here to comment about it almost being gone. The footage you shared reminded me that the storm nearly stood still for days. I’m looking forward to Dorian being a retired name.
