As Dorian heads for Florida, here's what you need in an emergency hurricane survival kit.

Dorian mostly missed Puerto Rico but the island nation still had strong winds and up to 2 inches of rain in many areas.

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration , an elevated weather station on Buck Island just south of St. Thomas sustained winds of 82 MPH and gusts of 111 MPH. Meanwhile, the satellite images of Dorian this morning do not look like a classic hurricane just yet. But with favorable conditions including low wind shear and warm ocean water, a rapid intensification is extremely likely in the next 24 hours.

The National Hurricane Center is saying that landfall on the United States will most likely happen on Monday morning in Florida somewhere between Cape Canaveral and West Palm Beach.
