Hurricane Dorian is major, that means category 3 or above. It is a Category 4 and likely to stay that way moving through the Bahamas, on the way to Florida. In those locations, do not hesitate, plan for a powerful storm with widespread negative impact on communities and lives.

Wherever you are, you must follow your local forecast for detail. weather.gov is a comprehensive site for US weather forecasts and hazards.

One correction- Hurricane Irma was in 2017 not 2018.
