Hurricane Erin downgraded to Category 3 as tropical storm warning issued for Turks and Caicos
Hurricane Erin has been downgraded to a Category 3 hurricane. Hurricane Erin was downgraded to a Category 3 hurricane early Sunday as a tropical storm warning was issued for the Turks and Caicos Islands and winds and heavy rains whipped the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.
While the category 4 storm is not expected to make landfall on the U.S. east coast, it will have an impact nonetheless. Dangerous high surf and rip currents are expected from Florida to New England throughout the week.
The storm is expected to continue to fluctuate in intensity and could double or even triple in size as it moves north and west, reports said.
