Hurricane Erin has weakened to a Category 1 storm after lashing North Carolina's Outer Banks with rough waves and coastal flooding, and bringing a threat of dangerous waves and potentially deadly rip currents to the East Coast.

We are watching two systems behind Erin. One, south of Bermuda, is likely to become Tropical Storm Fernand this weekend.

Erin is now a post-tropical cyclone as it tracks northeast farther from the East Coast. This is the last advisory for Erin from the National Hurricane Center.

The storm’s long-lasting and drastic impact caused significant damage to the North Fork Reservoir, which serves Asheville and other parts of Buncombe County. The boil water notice was lifted on Nov. 18, nearly two months after Helene’s Sept. 27 landing.

A disturbance in the Atlantic following Hurricane Erin is now expected to track northward, National Hurricane Center data shows.

The massive storm is expected to bring coastal flooding and tropical storm conditions to parts of the mid-Atlantic despite not making landfall.

The NWS Wakefield VA released a tropical cyclone statement at 11:28 a.m. on Tuesday in effect until 7:30 p.m. The statement is for Western Currituck and Eastern Currituck as well as Pasquotank, Camden,
