Hurricane Erin is about 260 miles east of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, and is quickly moving away from the East Coast. Erin is very large in size, with hurricane-force winds extending out to 105 miles from its center and tropical storm-force winds extending out to 320 miles from its center.

Hurricane Erin is heading north-northwest in the southwestern Atlantic. Erin is a category 2 storm, with 105 mile per hour winds. The track should move about 22

Erin isn't as intense as it once was. But its large size is what matters most. While it won't landfall, it will bring high surf and rip currents to much of the East Coast. And it could bring damaging surge flooding for some.
