(1) A Tropical Storm WARNING: Turks and Caicos Islands... Southeast Bahamas.
Hurricane Erin has weakened slightly overnight but remains a very strong storm with winds well over 120 mph, making it still a major hurricane. The track remains mostly unchanged. It will start making that northern turn in the next 24 hours.

Evacuations ordered for part of North Carolina coast despite Hurricane Erin remaining offshore
Hurricane Erin continues to churn in the Atlantic as it looks to swing north and away from the U.S. coastline. It is now a Category 3 storm with maximum sustained winds of 125 mph. This is the first hurricane of the 2025 season in the Atlantic, according to the National Hurricane Center.
Hurricane Erin is forecast to remain well offshore but still bring hazardous currents and possible erosion like previous offshore hurricanes before it.
While Erin is expected to take a northward turn in the Atlantic, a new system off the coast of Africa has the National Hurricane Center's attention.
