Hurricane Dorian is nearly stationary Monday morning. As it continues to pound Grand Bahama Island, Dorian’s maximum sustained winds have decreased slightly to 155 miles per hour — but it is still a very dangerous category 4 hurricane.
At 11 am Monday, Dorian was located near 26.8 North, 78.3 West, about 30 miles northeast of Freeport. Dorian was crawling slightly west-northwest of due west at 1 mile per hour.
In South Florida, a tropical storm warning and a hurricane watch are in effect from north of Deerfield Beach to Jupiter Inlet. A tropical storm watch is in effect from Golden Beach (at the Miami-Dade/Broward county line) to Deerfield Beach. There are no other watches or warnings for South Florida.
Elsewhere in Florida, a hurricane warning is now in effect from just north of Jupiter Inlet to the Volusia/Flagler county line. While Dorian is expected to stay offshore, even a slight westward jog in Dorian’s track could bring hurricane conditions to that part of the Florida coast.
The 11 am advisory has shifted the forecast track of Dorian slightly eastward, lessening the chances of damaging winds to Miami-Dade and the southern half of Broward. Palm Beach County can expect damaging winds and possibly hurricane force gusts. All of South Florida can expect periods of gusty winds and heavy rain as outer bands of Dorian move through. An isolated tornado is possible.
