the spath favorable for the east coast. that's the bottom line. i'm much more concerned about our other storm that's now affecting us than this one. this is worst case scenario for the central bahamas. when we see these pictures, it's going to be devastating. this storm a category 4 is going to sit over that area for another 12 hours. they'll have 24 hours of dealing with a category 4 storm. imagine those people stuck in their homes. the pounding of the wind outside their houses and dealing with that. 130-mile-per-hour wind and it has finally started to make that northerly turn. it will accelerate. and it looks to split the uprights between the outer banks and bermuda off the coast. a slight, slight chance of some effects on cape cod or nova scotia. that's about it. everyone else on the eastern seaboard, much, much better than the last couple of days. let's deal with the problems now. torrential rains are now moving into eastern north carolina from the wilmington area towards raleigh. you're going to get soaked during the day today. we will start

really the entire east coast. but still tearing through the bahamass with 130-mile-an-hour winds and not moving a lot in you can see the movement about 3 miles per hour. it's really stationary at this point. category 4 major hurricane doesn't downgrade until we hit early sunday then takes until tuesday for it to move southeast of nantucket and cape cod. cone of uncertainty the narrowing meaning the uncertainty not so uncertain anymore. we're a little bit more confident. that's the official forecast track from the national hurricane track. looking at the model considered we're getting more of a match on that track more of a forecast model agreeing that joaquin does head out to sea. a very powerful storm cat 4 through the bahamian island and it will stay there until early tomorrow morning. i believe we will see more damage in a few minutes. hurricane joaquin unlikely to effect the eastern seaboard. in bahamas much different story. we certainly cannot forget about the people in the path of danger. heavy wind, torrent

so, this is such a large system that even if it doesn't make a direct landfall on the east coast, it still will have some impact as it interacts with the system that is draped right along the coast right now. and we see the current specs on the storms right now. 130 miles per hour moving northwest at 3 miles per hour. once again, this really isn't moving at this point and we'll be watching over the weekend as it possibly misses the east coast but, once again, it will be tapping into the system draped right along the coast and could bring some very heavy amounts of rain as we go into the next several days. so, of course, all eyes on the east coast and the potential flooding that is expected as the days go on into next week. sam and laura. >> pretty fascinating to watch. for the latest on this developing situation any time, download our nbc bay area app. find all the updates on hurricane joaquin as well as your own microclimate forecast. >>> overturned big rigs and road construction and all part of the mix this morning on your morning commute, mike. >> all good. everything is looking cl
