Hurricane Erin: Puerto Rico’s Wet Blanket, NC's Airbnb Eviction Notice
Hurricane Erin decided to party hard, slapping Puerto Rico with 7.32 inches of rain while casually reminding North Carolina's Dare County it’s eviction time with a mandatory evacuation for Hatteras Island. Officials warned of 'life-threatening impacts' and coastal flooding starting Tuesday on N.C. Highway 12, which might soon be a slip n' slide. The National Hurricane Center admitted Erin downgraded from Category 5 to 3 but promised it's still 'a large and dangerous major hurricane' ready to bounce back stronger—because why settle for calm when you can keep the drama?
