Hurricane Erin
(updated 16 Aug 2025 @ 7am AST/EDT)
⭕ Erin has strengthened to become a Category 4 hurricane.
⚠️ Erin is not expected to be a direct threat to Puerto Rico, though rainfall and rough seas are expected.
📍 Erin is currently located about 335 miles northeast of San Juan, moving west-north-west at 20 MPH.
💨 Maximum sustained winds are 130 MPH. Hurricane-force winds (75+ MPH) extend outward from the center for 30 miles. Tropical-storm-force winds (39+ MPH) extend outward from the center for 120 miles.
🔀 On the current forecast track, Erin is expected to pass to the north-east of Puerto Rico as a "major hurricane" (meaning Category 3 or higher) this weekend.
⛈️ Rainfall totals of 2" to 4" (and up to 6" in some places) are expected, especially in the eastern and southern parts of Puerto Rico. Localize flooding, flash floods, and mudslides may be possible.
🌊 Swells generated by Erin may affect the southern, eastern, and north-eastern coasts of Puerto Rico, along with all of Culebra and Vieques, this weekend. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.
