Earth from Orbit: Hurricane Ernesto | NOAA
Even with the storm hundreds of miles offshore, Hurricane Ernesto was still being felt Saturday, Aug. 17, 2024, along much of the U.S. Eastern Seaboard, with dangerous rip currents forcing public beaches to close during one of the final busy weekends of the summer season.
Hurricane specialist Philippe Papin from the National Hurricane Center said Ernesto was a “pretty large” hurricane with a “large footprint of seas and waves” affecting the central Florida Atlantic coastline all the way north to Long Island in New York, with tropical-storm-force winds extending outward up to 230 miles from the storm’s center.
