New Forecast: Huge Hurricane Larry Churning In Atlantic; Latest Projected Path New Forecast: Huge Hurricane Larry Churning In Atlantic; Latest Projected Path
New Forecast: Huge Hurricane Larry Churning In Atlantic; Latest Projected Path Forecasters are watching powerful Hurricane Larry churning in the Atlantic Basin, warning it could wind up being an even stronger storm than Ida, which left a trail of destruction through multiple states. The latest projected track for the Category 3 storm, packed with 115 mile-per-hour winds, still keeps it well off the US coast.

Here's Why There's Concern Over Hurricane Larry's Rip Currents Here's Why There's Concern Over Hurricane Larry's Rip Currents

A year ago, Hurricane Teddy was blamed for a rip current drowning in New Jersey, a week after Hurricane Paulette stirred waves that produced two others in the Garden State and South Carolina. Fast-moving channels of water from Hurricane Lorenzo caused eight East Coast deaths, including those of two Rockaway Beach teens…

Doubling down on its predictions of the Labor Day weekend, the service said the worst we could see in our area are "significant swells" in the Atlantic. These will be "likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions," according to its latest report. Bermuda could take a hit, most likely on Thursday, but that wasn't a sure thing, forecasters said. …
