Erin has become the first hurricane of the Atlantic season with strong waves and rip currents possible along the East Coast of the United States as early as next week.

Increased surf and dangerous rip currents are expected to continue along the eastern seaboard as Hurricane Erin moves into the North Atlantic.

It's only the fifth named storm so far of the Atlantic hurricane season, still going down in the books as the first major hurricane of the year. In a series of videos captured by GOES-19, you can see the progression of the storm and see just how far Erin's outer bands extend.
