Tropical Storm Earl is now Hurricane Earl.

Because Hurricane Earl is moving slowly north at 6 mph, there is time for Hurricane Earl to gain strength over its current, maximum sustained winds of 80 mph before arrival in the Bermuda area.

If this happens, Hurricane Earl could pose a serious threat to the Bermuda area as a category 2 hurricane by Thursday night, either swiping Bermuda directly or somewhere southeast of Bermuda.

What can Bermuda expect from Hurricane Earl?

As Hurricane Earl strengthens, Bermuda can expect the following:

up to 3 inches (or more) of rainfall across Bermuda through Fridayswells by Wednesday night life-threatening surf and rip current conditions through Friday
