The eye of Category 2 Hurricane Dorian is now brushing North Carolina USA and could make landfall. Even if no landfall it’s a bad set up with the eye of the storm brushing the coastline as it tracks NE.

The storm was Category 5 as it came into The Bahamas on Monday and has weakened back slowly in the past day to Category 2, but yesterday it strengthened back to a Cat 3. Now, it remains a Category 2 as it closely hugs the eastern coastline.

One positive is that the storm is moving faster – meaning rainfall and time of damaging winds is more restricted.
