Hurricane Earl is on the brink of turning into a major hurricane, threatening Bermuda with ferocious winds Thursday evening.
"Hurricane conditions are possible on Bermuda overnight," the Miami-based National Hurricane Center said Thursday afternoon. Swells generated by Earl have been building near Bermuda and are expected to reach the US East Coast later Thursday, forecasters said. "These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions through the weekend," the National Hurricane Center said.
ET Thursday, Hurricane Earl was centered about 140 miles south of Bermuda, according to the center. The cyclone was headed north-northeast at 16 mph . It hurled maximum sustained winds of 100 mph, which will likely intensify -- and its wind gusts were even stronger, the center said.Earl is expected to further accelerate Thursday night and make a more northeastward turn Friday, the National Hurricane Center said.
