飓风多里安在北卡罗莱纳州登陆，风暴继续给东海岸地区带来大风、暴雨、洪水和风暴潮。
长久以来，多里安被认为注定要在佛罗里达登陆，在以萨菲尔-辛普森风级的5级飓风袭击巴哈马之后，他转向东北。方向的改变使风暴沿着美国海岸前进，而不是直接向佛罗里达前进。
对于佛罗里达州、乔治亚州和南卡罗来纳州的居民来说，最严重的风暴已经过去了，但它仍然对北卡罗来纳州和弗吉尼亚州的居民构成威胁。周五早上，国家飓风中心(NHC)报道多里安在北卡罗来纳州哈特拉斯角登陆。
来自国家飓风中心(NHC)的最新公告称多里安距离哈特拉斯角约50英里，最大持续风速为每小时90英里。以这种速度，风暴被认为是1级。截至上午11点咨询，多里安在北卡罗来纳海岸，似乎与格林维尔平行。
北卡罗莱纳州入口波格以西的飓风警报已经停止，但NHC对东海岸的不同地区发出了许多其他的监视和警报，被确定为:
- 风暴潮警报:北卡罗莱纳州索尔特路至弗吉尼亚州波科森；Pamlico和Albemarle声音；纽泽河和帕姆利科河；汉普顿路
- 飓风警报:北卡罗莱纳州/弗吉尼亚州边界的博格湾；Pamlico和Albemarle声音
- 飓风观察:新斯科舍
- 热带风暴警报:北卡罗莱纳州/弗吉尼亚州与特拉华州芬威克岛接壤；从鼓点向南的切萨皮克湾；科布岛以南的波托马克潮汐；伍兹霍尔到马萨诸塞州萨加莫尔海滩；马萨诸塞州楠塔基特和玛莎葡萄园；巴尔港以东到缅因州伊斯特波特
- 热带风暴观察:爱德华王子岛；马格达林群岛；芬迪国家公园到谢迪亚；弗朗索瓦到船港
手表和警告之间的区别是情况发生的可能性。在警告期间，条件预计会在接下来的36小时内出现，而在手表期间，可能会出现条件。
NHC警告说，在接下来的几个小时里，威胁生命的风暴潮和洪水可能会继续在北卡罗来纳州和弗吉尼亚州发生。
向东北方向移动，多里安预计周五晚上将远离海岸，但风速保持在每小时90英里。周五晚上发现自己在弗吉尼亚州里士满市外，风暴将继续向东北移动，周六早上到达楠塔基特海峡外。
多里安有可能在周六晚上以一级飓风的身份登陆新斯科舍。
WHERE IS HURRICANE DORIAN RIGHT NOW? PATH, TRACK FOR STORM AFTER LANDFALL OVER CAPE HATTERAS, NORTH CAROLINA
Hurricane Dorian made landfall over North Carolina and the storm continues to bring heavy wind, rain, flooding and storm surges to areas of the East Coast.
Long believed to be destined to make landfall in Florida, after hitting the Bahamas as a Category 5 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson wind scale, Dorian turned northeast. The change in direction put the storm on a path that would carry it along the coast of the United States instead of directly toward Florida.
For residents in Florida, Georgia and South Carolina, the worst of the storm is largely behind them, but it still poses danger to those in North Carolina and Virginia. On Friday morning, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) reported Dorian made landfall over Cape Hatteras, North Carolina.
The latest advisory from the National Hurricane Center (NHC) placed Dorian about 50 miles from Cape Hatteras with maximum sustained winds of 90 mph. At that speed, the storm is considered a Category 1. As of the 11 a.m. advisory, Dorian was off the coast of North Carolina, seemingly parallel with Greenville.
A Hurricane Warning was discontinued west of Bogue, Inlet, North Carolina, but the NHC issued a number of other watches and warnings for various areas of the East Coast, Identified as:
- Storm Surge Warning: Salter Path, North Carolina, to Poquoson, Virginia; Pamlico and Albemarle Sounds; Neuse and Pamlico Rivers; Hampton Roads
- Hurricane Warning: Bogue Inlet to the North Carolina/Virginia border; Pamlico and Albemarle Sounds
- Hurricane Watch: Nova Scotia
- Tropical Storm Warning: North Carolina/Virginia border to Fenwick Island, Delaware; Chesapeake Bay from Drum Point southward; Tidal Potomac south of Cobb Island; Woods Hole to Sagamore Beach, Massachusetts; Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts; East of Bar Harbor to Eastport, Maine
- Tropical Storm Watch: Prince Edward Island; Magdalen Islands; Fundy National Park to Shediac; Francois to Boat Harbour
The difference between a watch and a warning is the likelihood for conditions to occur. During a warning, conditions are expected to occur within the next 36 hours, whereas, during a watch, it's possible conditions will occur.
The NHC warned that life-threatening storm surges and flash flooding could continue to occur in North Carolina and Virginia over the next few hours.
Moving in a northeast direction, Dorian was expected to head farther away from the coast on Friday night, but sustain the 90 mph wind speed. Finding itself outside Richmond, Virginia, on Friday night, the storm would then continue northeast and be outside the Nantucket Sound on Saturday morning.
It is possible Dorian could make landfall in Nova Scotia as a Category 1 hurricane on Saturday night.
