Hermine | Tropical Hermine Storm

Hermine is a potential 'monster' Labor Day weekend storm threat for East Coast. As of midday Friday, more than 30 million people from Florida to New York were under tropical storm watches and warnings through the weekend. The National Weather Service said heavy rain, flash floods, strong winds and rip currents were expected as Hermine or its remnants move up the coast.

Even though meteorologists might officially classify the system as "post-tropical" over the weekend, Hermine is expected to remain "a dangerous cyclone through 5 days," according to the hurricane center.
Hundreds of schools and government offices announced closures as the state today for the storm's full impact.

In addition to high winds, forecasters said, the storm could bring dangerous flooding in the next 12 to 24 hours along the Florida coast.
