Hurricane Erin has re-intensified into a powerful Category 4 hurricane with winds of 130 mph after completing an eyewall replacement cycle. Erin is now a very large hurricane and is expected to bring life-threatening surf and rip currents along the entire U.S. East Coast, including North Carolina’s Outer Banks.

As the storm grows in size and tracks northwest, residents of coastal North Carolina should closely monitor updates this week. Even if Erin stays offshore, the dangerous surf, rip currents, and coastal flooding risks are significant.
