Danny’s packing 45 MPH winds and is moving west-northwest at 18. We’ll need to watch this as it stands to come fairly close to the Southeast coast by this weekend. The forecast calls for a Category 1 Danny to come very close to the Outer Banks of North Carolina Saturday morning. This can and likely will change as time goes on, so we’ll be keeping a close watch. Stay tuned.

Satellite imagery and the latest NHC outlook indicate a circulation has come together from the trough of low pressure. Last night a Hurricane Hunter aircraft went into the storm and found tropical storm-force winds within the wave.

Given its proximity to the coastline, interests on the Southeast coast — including Charleston — need to keep a very close watch on this one. Computer model runs indicate that the Outer Banks, in particular, could get a sideswipe from Danny.
