Hurricane Erin tracker: North Carolina under state of emergency, beaches ban swimming in Northeast
Hurricane Erin, now a Category 2 hurricane, won't make landfall on the U.S. East Coast, but it will impact residents and visitors at North Carolina's Outer Banks.
Hurricane Erin is churning slowly toward the eastern U.S. coast and stirring up waves that already have forced residents of North Carolina's Outer Banks to evacuate.
Beginning at noon Saturday, residents, property owners, and workers will be able to access NC12 at the Basnight Bridge.
Though Hurricane Erin has shifted northeast, the storm continues to send dangerous waves and rip currents toward New York and surrounding coasts.
