Strong recent developments in the path of Hurricane Earl, as it is moving steadily in the northeastern direction in the Caribbean, and has now formed into a category 3 hurricane. The National Hurricane Center has stated that the storm can turn into a category 4 hurricane later during the week. If Earl turns into a category 4 hurricane then it will sustain wind speeds of more than 131 mph.
Earl is looking to bring heavy torrential rain with it, and is the second biggest hurricane in the Atlantic during the hurricane season of 2010. The hurricane center has forecast that, Earl is going to develop into a bigger storm as it approaches the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.
If there is still possible developments in the storm system then Earl is likely to hit the US shores and will provide strong damage. But latest reports state that Earl will be moving north, just parallel to the US coast.
