Hurricane Arthur to Batter Eastern North Carolina

Arthur has become the first hurricane of the 2014 Atlantic tropical
season and is forecast by AccuWeather

to take a northeasterly path along the Atlantic coast of the United
States Thursday night into Friday.

According to AccuWeather Hurricane Expert Dan Kottlowski, "With this
forecast track, the worst of Arthur's wind will remain offshore, but
some strong, gusty squalls will affect eastern North Carolina and
especially the North Carolina barrier islands."
