Category 5 Dorian is sitting over Grand Bahama

/ September 2, 2019 at 6:44 AM

As of the 5am advisory, Hurricane Dorian remains a powerful Category 5 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 165 MPH. It has essentially stalled out, crawling to the west at 1 MPH. It is expected to very slowly start moving more northward today. Impacts for the Lowcountry — storm surge, strong winds, very heavy rain — are becoming a little clearer, but everything hinges on when the northerly turn happens. More later this morning.
