MIAMI: Hurricane Dorian is expected to strengthen into a dangerous Category 3 storm on Friday with winds of at least 178 km/h as it heads towards Florida's Atlantic coast.
Dorian was a Category 2 storm early on Friday with winds of 169 km per hour and its 9 km per hour trajectory could slow down allowing it to crawl across the warm coastal waters, a recipe for storm fuel. Other NHC weather models show the storm tracking south toward Miami in south Florida before it hits the peninsula, or heading north to the Georgia coast.
Georgia Governor Brian Kemp declared a state of emergency in 12 counties to assist with storm readiness, response and recovery. "We woke up a lot more scared than we went to bed last night, and the news is not getting any better," said Johnson, who manages Coconuts On The Beach, a bar and restaurant on the surfing beach in the town of Cocoa Beach.
