Update on Hurricane Irene...

Hurricane Irene intensified into a Category 3 hurricane (the threshold for major hurricane classification) Wednesday morning.  Irene will likely then strengthen into a powerful Category 4 hurricane during its dangerous assault on the Bahamas into Thursday.

After leaving the Bahamas, Irene will take aim at the North Carolina Outer Banks and New England this weekend. Florida and Georgia will be spared in the process.
