RED BANK: HURRICANE FLORENCE WATCH

florence-091018-500x411-3857022All eyes are on a brewing storm named Florence that threatens to impact the Eastern Seaboard later this week.
“Florence is forecast to become a major hurricane this morning, and is expected to remain an extremely  dangerous major hurricane through Thursday,” the National Weather Service reported early Monday.

While it’s still too early to determine the timing, location and magnitude of Florence’s impact, residents as far north as the Mid-Atlantic region should closely monitor the storm and have a hurricane plan in place, the NWS advises.

Meantime, the area that includes the Greater Red Bank Green is expected to get a soaking that could amount to more than an inch of rain Monday and early Tuesday. A coastal flood watch will be in effect from 2 p.m. until late Monday night.

Here’s the extended forecast:
