What’s The Latest Hurricane Irma Track?

Hurricane Irma is on a crash course with Florida, according to the latest projections by the National Hurricane Center.
Irma’s veering north into Florida has seemed likely for a few days, but the 8 a.m. Wednesday update by the NHC gives it more certainty, though there’s always a chance hurricanes will behave unpredictably. Hurricane Irma has already hit Barbuda, according to that update, and is barreling towards the U.S. and British Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, which are under hurricane warnings. By Thursday morning Irma is likely to hit the Dominican Republic, followed by the Turks and Caicos Islands and the Bahamas on Friday, Cuba on Saturday and Sunday and Florida starting early Sunday.
