Hurricane Hannah Path

Hurricane Hannah Threat The Bahamas And U.S. East Coast

While Hurricane Gustav makes landfall in the U.S Gulf Coast states, Hurricane Hannah now heads toward the U.S. East Coast.

According to the latest advisory from the National Weather Center, which is listed here as advisory number 19, but is constantly changing as the advisories are updated, Hannah has become the fourth storm of the season, at 75 mile an hour winds it makes Hannah a Category 1 as of this time and is has caused the Government of the Bahamas to issue a Hurricane warning for Central and Southeastern Bahamas.

Projections show that Hannah could continue along it's current path and make landfall potentially affecting Florida, Georgia and possibly North Carolina if it follows the projected path, which has the North Carolina Red Cross keeping some of their supplies close to home in case they are needed to combat the potential hit from Hannah.

The U.S. Coast Guard units are prepared to send more ships, aircrafts, medical teams, disaster assistance teams to areas affected and some have already been sent to the Gulf Coast to help with the damage seen from Gustav which is a Category 2 as reported at Bradenton News.

The projected path of what is now a Hurricane Hannah is expected to hit the East Coast of Florida within 3 days unless the storm slows or loses strength after hitting land in the Bahamas, but even then it is expected to gain strength again once it goes over the warm waters again.

Hurricane Hannah was not projected to become a Hurricane until Tuesday or Wednesday initially.

Hurricane Hannah Projected Path

The Hurricane Hannah projected path is a cause for concern today as people, weary from a very tough hurricane season, prepare for yet another onslaught.

Fortunate for folks in the Gulf Coast, Hurricane Hannah should not be making a stop in their neck of the woods. Instead, the projected path of Hurricane Hannah shows it hitting the East Coast.

Hurricane Hannah is currently a Category 1 hurricane, with winds of 75mph. The Bahamian government has already issued a hurricane warning for Central and Southeastern Bahamas.

If Hurricane Hannah hits in the Bahamas and stays on its' current projected course, it would end up affecting Florida, Georgia and possibly North Carolina. This news has officials in those states concerned.

Relief agencies are now unsure of how to allocate resources in several southern states. Hurricane Gustav is still active and now Hurricane Hannah is threatening further damage.
