The National Hurricane Center is tracking four systems in the Atlantic, including Hurricane Erin and newly designated Invest 90L.
Erin’s surf and storm surge could cause erosion along sections of the Florida and East Coast and shapes up as potentially worse for North Carolina’s barrier islands, which are under mandatory evacuation orders ahead of the four feet of storm surge and 20-foot offshore waves Erin is expected to bring.
Scattered storms and showers are returning to South Florida today. This is wonderful news between one to 6 p.m. Today is our best chance of seeing some heavy downpours which are much needed all across our area since we’re in an extreme drought for places like Fort Lauderdale and a severe drought all throughout South Florida spanning into the key specifically for all of our metro and and coastal areas.
Users were impressed by the perspective captured in the viral post, with one describing it as "beautiful and terrifying."
