US EditionHurrican Gabrielle Is Now a Cat 1 Storm Headed Towards the Azores
Hurricane Gabrielle, with 115 mph winds, poses risks of heavy rain, strong winds, and storm surge to the Azores, with hurricane conditions expected Thursday night through Friday.
- The U.S. National Hurricane Center has placed the Azores under a hurricane warning as Hurricane Gabrielle, a Category 3 storm with winds reaching 115 mph, moves closer to the islands on Wednesday.
- Gabrielle formed nearly a week ago after a three-week lull during the peak Atlantic hurricane season and intensified into a hurricane over the weekend.
- The hurricane is advancing east-northeast at 25 mph and is forecast to move through the Azores from Thursday night into Friday, bringing intense winds, significant rainfall, and hazardous ocean conditions.
- Forecasts indicate Gabrielle may cause 3-5 inches of rain in central and western Azores and life-threatening swells and rip currents along Bermuda and the U.S. East Coast.
- Gabrielle will likely lose strength prior to reaching the islands but may still bring hurricane-force winds, heavy rainfall, and a hazardous storm surge that could lead to coastal flooding.
