Despite its weakening, the storm still carries sustained winds of 125 mph and has prompted emergency declarations in coastal areas of North Carolina.

Hurricane-force winds extend up to 50 miles and tropical-storm-force winds over 200 miles. Puerto Rico, the Turks and Caicos, and the Bahamas are already seeing heavy rainfall, with flash flooding and mudslides possible. Dangerous surf and rip currents are affecting much of the Caribbean and will soon reach the East Coast, Bermuda, and Atlantic Canada.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-8\">\n<div id=\"primedailys.com_responsive_2\" data-google-query-id=\"CIbhrKr3lI8DFcqT_QcdmK8dxw\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/23207117756\/primedailys.com\/primedailys.com_responsive_2_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-start=\"944\" data-end=\"1353\">Although not expected to make U.S. landfall, Erin could still cause serious coastal impacts. Areas from Florida to Massachusetts could face beach erosion, flooding, and dangerous surf. AccuWeather\u2019s Alex DaSilva warned that if Erin shifts farther west before turning north, the U.S. Atlantic coast may see worsening conditions. The Outer Banks, Long Island, and Cape Cod are among areas with the highest risk.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1355\" data-end=\"1689\">Dare and Hyde Counties in North Carolina have declared states of emergency. Mandatory evacuations are underway for Hatteras and Ocracoke Islands due to expected overwash and flooding from waves up to 20 feet high. Officials stress that even without a direct hit, Erin\u2019s size will bring life-threatening impacts to coastal communities.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-9\">\n<div id=\"primedailys.com_responsive_3\" data-google-query-id=\"CNP1rar3lI8DFY-I_Qcd6PQh7A\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/23207117756\/primedailys.com\/primedailys.com_responsive_3_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-start=\"1691\" data-end=\"1932\">Tropical Storm Chantal, which made landfall earlier in July, brought heavy rain, gusty winds, and flash flooding to parts of the Carolinas.
