Good morning,
Hurricane Erin has weakened to a Category 3 storm as of this morning, with maximum sustained winds of 125 mph.
It is currently moving west-southwest and is expected to affect the Northeast later this week. Flood watches are in effect for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands due to heavy rainfall, which may lead to flooding and landslides. The storm's outer bands are bringing rain and gusty winds of 40 to 50 mph to these areas.
As Hurricane Erin continues its path, it is forecasted to generate large waves along the East Coast starting next week, potentially impacting areas from the Carolinas up through the Northeast.
