AIR is monitoring Tropical Storm Henri, currently located approximately 500 miles southeast of Cape Hatteras, NC, and 800 miles due south of Nantucket, MA, with maximum 1-minute sustained winds of 70 mph. The forecast for the next 24 hours is for Henri to move due westward, eventually turning north during the day Friday, with little change in intensity expected over this period. Depending on the strength of Henri as it turns northward and the timing and location of other steering factors, a range of outcomes are possible, from landfall on Long Island or Cape Cod to curving away from land altogether.
Next update on Tropical Storm Henri, including potential ALERT plans, will come on Friday morning, EDT.
