Hurricane Earl Projected Path
Hurricane Earl is a Category 4 Tropical Storm, currently playing catch with small boats in the open Atlantic. But with that large and very intense storm progressing northwestward, it's slowly moving towards the U.S. East Coast.
While Earl is only moving with 14 miles per hour, a Hurricane Watch has been issued for the East Coast from north of Surf City to the border of North Carolina and Virginia. The Hurricane Watch includes the Pamlicio and Albemarle sounds.
The tropical storm warning for Turks and Caicos Islands is still in effect and a tropical storm watch has been issued for the Southeastern Bahamas and also from Cape Fear to Surf City. So, if you are living somewhere between Virginia up to New England, you should monitor the progress of Hurricane Earl very closely.

The storm is moving toward the northwest with 14 mph and Earl is expected to continue to move in this direction on Wednesday and then gradually turning to the north-northwest then. Earl should be northeast of the Bahamas tomorrow.
There will be a minor update given on 8:00 PM and a major update at 11:00 PM by the National Hurricane Center.
Even if the Category 4 Hurricane Earl would only slightly touch the East Coast, it would most likely be a pretty rainy weekend.
That Hurricane Earl is followed by the relatively weak
Tropical Storm Fiona
does not increase the chances of a nice and sunny Labor Day weekend, at least not for the East Coat of the U.S.
