Earl Track, OF NORTH EAST: dangerous cat. 3-4 Hurricane Earl is on track for the night side of the Outer Banks on Thursday. Tropical storm conditions are likely to become the region’s north coast through the crystal sounds. Sometimes, the real hurricane conditions could be mixed near Cape Hatteras. Friday will feature the classic heat post-hurricane before a more pleasant air mass that is based on the holiday weekend.

Thursday DETAILS FORECAST: Expect partly cloudy skies. Coastal showers will be possible later in the day. East winds will increase from 5 to 15 mph next. High temperatures will be higher in the 80 to about 90.

THURSDAY NIGHT: What winds EARL MAY BRING? West of Highway 17, maximum sustained winds of 25 mph or less north is likely. Areas around Highway 17 east to interior banks may experience sustained winds north around 35-55 mph (near tropical storm force) with higher gusts possible. Maximum sustained winds north 55 to 65 + mph (strong tropical storm force) with gusts around or possibly more hurricane force (75-95 + mph) are possible for the Dare County Outer Banks the night Thursday. The National Weather Service continues a hurricane warning from entry to Virginia and Bogue sounds and a Tropical Storm Warning Onslow, Jones, Duplin, Lenoir Greene, Pitt and Martin counties.

THURSDAY NIGHT: WHAT TO BRING RAIN MAY EARL? Rainfall amounts not distributed uniformly throughout the area. Earl’s spiral bands easily should bring sheets to tropical rain – perhaps more than 3 “of it – to Hatteras Island. Rainbands deliver more uneven rainfall of about 1” west to Highway 17 counties. Inland, many points they get no rain.

THURSDAY NIGHT: WHAT OTS-EX-R COASTAL HAZARDS EARL MAY BRING? Caution Thursday until Friday! Strong waves and rip currents are likely for all beaches. Earl Sea swells and winds of unity between 8 and 16-foot wave in the northern Outer Banks of Hatteras and several waves of 3 to 8-foot on the beaches further south. Storm surge of 2-5 feet, beach erosion and ocean liner will be possible on Thursday night, especially north of Cape Lookout. High tide is around 2:30 am Friday. The water rises in the southern tip of the probe local Pamlico 1-4 5 feet can also be performed.

Hurricane Earl Path

Hurricane Earl Path, Hurricane Earl is on a path to the U.S., current projections, and head north to New England to lose and could maintain hurricane strength as you go. As someone who has experienced major hurricanes first hand – I felt the eye of Hurricane Andrew in Miami in 1992 and New Orleans pre-Hurricane Katrina – I’ve seen how difficult it can be hurricanes. The emotional and physical damage is real (for Andrew, we lost all our roof, our roof collapsed, the porch left without words, and a traumatized child finished elementary school).
Without minimizing — crouching in a bathtub while-your-house-spins-around-you sense, it is important to remember how expensive it can be hurt by the storm, and how useful it is to take preventive measures. Although not seen as Earl is going to pull any magic Category 5 in the Northeast, taking into account the effect of Katrina in my childhood home: It was only a Category 1 or 2 when he arrived, but our roof leaked so so terrible that we had to use our generator to run the dryer in order to produce more towels to stop the water – we’d use a wet towel in the house alone. The same happened with all our neighbors, because all our ceilings were just 13 years old, as they had all been replaced for the last time after Andrew. Preventive measures such as custom blinds are extremely expensive, but after the stories I heard, I would not put my trust in the board layers.
Conclusion: Prevention is expensive, but cleanliness is even more expensive. The Northeast is not used to hurricanes, but if you’re looking for someone to tell you about supplies of bottled water, just ask the Miami
