North Carolina below state of emergency, seashores ban swimming in Northeast
Hurricane Erin, now a Category 2 hurricane, has prompted a state of emergency in North Carolina and is predicted to carry harmful waves and rip currents to seashores alongside the East Coast.
While the storm will not make landfall on the East Coast, it has triggered a tropical storm warning for North Carolina’s Outer Banks and necessary evacuations for some Outer Banks residents and guests. The Outer Banks is predicted to get heavy rain, winds over 40 mph and a storm surge of two to 4 toes this week.
