Hurricane Bill Update, Mother Nature is unpredictable, but at this point, it seems Hurricane Bill is lining up for a best case scenario for the East Coast…especially if you are a surfer. The current forecasted track for Bill puts it between Bermuda and the East Coast.  This is an ideal scenario for great surf on the Outer Banks. Bill became the first hurricane of the season on Monday morning, and reached category 2 strength Monday evening. As of 11 a.m., Bill had sustained winds near 105 miles per hour. Further strengthening is expected and the system could become a major hurricane (category three or higher) over the next day. The current forecast track keeps Bill north of the Lesser Antilles and heading in the general direction of Bermuda, or between Bermuda and the Outer Banks, over the weekend. source :
