Rough Surf, Rip Currents Likely Along East Coast

August 19, 2025

Major Hurricane Erin is a very large and dangerous hurricane passing just east of the Turks and Caicos and southeast Bahamas on Monday. Very large waves and life-threatening rip currents will impact the U.S. East Coast this week due to Erin’s large size and expanding wind field. The latest track from the National Hurricane Center has Erin passing between North Carolina and Bermuda by the middle of the week. The Outer Banks of North Carolina could see 20-plus-foot waves and significant coastal flooding.
