Irene Heading North

Monster Irene on the move.

Very dangerous storm, folks. This is going to create massive damage and destruction. Winds have strengthened slightly but it's the size of the storm that's impressive with an almost 150-mile wide swath of hurricane force winds and tropical storm force winds that extend 250 miles from the center...we're talking 500 miles wide. The storm surge is going to be tremendous.

Currently, the outer rain bands are almost reaching the Georgia coast and can be seen in these views of CharlestonWilmington, and Morehead radars in SC/NC. I also have the following GRLevel3 loops going for further north:

Sterling VA
Dover AFB DE
Upton NY
