Erin could move close enough to the northern Leeward Islands, the Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico over the weekend to produce some impacts on those islands.

However, the magnitude of those impacts is still not known, and interests there should continue to monitor the progress of this storm.

There is even greater uncertainty in what impacts might occur in portions of the Greater Antilles, the Bahamas, the east coast of the United States, and Bermuda next week.

As we approach the climatological peak of the hurricane season, this is an opportune time to ensure your preparedness plans are in place.
