ʻO nā pupuhi i hana ʻia e ka Hurricane Florence e hoʻopili nei iā Bermuda a me nā ʻāpana o ka US East Coast. Hoʻokumu paha kēia mau ʻōhū i ka heʻenalu hoʻoweliweli a weluwelu i nā kūlana o kēia wā. Pono nā mākaʻikaʻi a me nā heʻe nalu e kū i waho o ka wai.
Ma 1100 AM AST (1500 UTC), aia ka maka o ka Hurricane Florence ma kahi o ka latitude 25.0 North, longitude 60.0 West. Ke neʻe nei ʻo Florence i ke komohana kokoke i 13 mph (20 km / h). ʻO ke neʻe komohana a me ke komohana me ka hoʻonui i ka wikiwiki i mua i nā lā ʻelua e hiki mai ana. E huli ana ma ka ʻākau komohana komohana i ka pō Pōʻakolu. Ma ke ala wānana, e neʻe ke kikowaena o Florence ma ke komohana hema o ʻAkelanika ma waena o Bermuda a me Bahamas i ka Pōʻalua a me Pōʻakolu, a hele i ke kahakai o South Carolina a ʻo North Carolina paha i ka Pōʻahā.
Hōʻike ka ʻikepili ukali ʻo ka hoʻonui ʻia o ka makani kūpaʻa a kokoke i 115 mph (185 km / h) me nā piʻi kiʻekiʻe. ʻO Florence kahi mahele makani ʻāpana 3 ma ka Pāʻani Wind Wind Saffir-Simpson.
Kuhi ʻia ka hoʻoikaika hou ʻana, a manaʻo ʻia ʻo Florence kahi makani ʻino nui weliweli loa a hiki i ka Pōʻahā.
Hoʻonui ka makani Hurricane-force i waho a hiki i 30 mile (45 km) mai ke kikowaena a hoʻonui ka makani pāhuna i ka 140 mile (220 km).
ʻO 962 mb (28.41 iniha) ka palena palena palena iki.
Ke piʻi ikaika nei ʻo Hurricane Florence ma kona ala e hele ai i ka East Coast a ma kēia manawa he mahele 4 me nā makani 130 mph, i ʻōlelo ʻia e ka National Hurricane Center i kahi loiloi kūikawā. Manaʻo ʻia ʻo Florence e hoʻoikaika i 150 mph ma mua pono o ka pae ʻana ma kahi ma ka hema hikina a i ʻole Mid-Atlantika kahakai i ka pō Pōʻalima.
Hoʻolālā pinepine nā wānana hoʻohālikelike kamepiula i ka ʻino e pae i waena o ka hema o Karolina Hema a me ko ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa ʻĀkau, ʻoiai hiki ke hoʻololi i ke ala, a hoʻonui nā hopena o ka ʻino i kahi mamao loa ma ʻō aku o kahi e pae ai ka ʻāina. Hāʻawi ʻia i ka maopopo ʻole a me ka manawa o ka neʻe ʻana, ua hoʻopuka nā luna ma North Carolina i nā kauoha no ka haʻalele no ʻO Dare County a me Hatteras Island.
Ua lilo i mea ʻole ʻole paha e huli ʻo Florence i ke kai a mālama iā Seaboard Hikina mai ka ʻino kūpikipikiʻi ʻana, ka wai hālana a me ka makani. Aia kekahi mau hōʻailona e lohi a piʻipiʻi paha ka makani ʻino ma luna o ka Mid-Atlantic ma hope o kēia pule, kahi e hiki ai i kahi ua nuiʻino.
He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- On the forecast track, the center of Florence will move over the southwestern Atlantic Ocean between Bermuda and the Bahamas Tuesday and Wednesday, and approach the coast of South Carolina or North Carolina on Thursday.
- Hurricane Florence is rapidly intensifying on its path toward the East Coast and is now a Category 4 with 130 mph winds, the National Hurricane Center said in a special update.
- Computer model forecasts generally project the storm to make landfall between northern South Carolina and North Carolina's Outer Banks, although shifts in the track are possible, and storm impacts will expand great distances beyond where landfall occurs.
