Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Hurricane Earl as it further weakened into a category 2 storm, and brushed by Cape Hatteras. Large flooding and hurricane force winds were expected, but Earl was not as severe, bringing only moderate flooding and tropical storm force winds. The storm then weakened to a category 1 storm with winds of 80 mph (130 km/h). In the Mid-Atlantic states, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and New Jersey, experienced minimal to moderate effects of Earl. Along the coastline, tropical storm winds and large waves were felt throughout, with outer rainbands also battering the areas. The Delmarva Peninsula escaped the brunt of the storm, only dealing with some of the outer rainbands and gale force winds. Off the coast of New Jersey two people were killed after being swept out to sea by rip currents. The bodies of both victims were found after they washed onshore days after Earl's passage.
