Earl Moving Closer To East Coast

Looks like Hurricane Earl may indeed graze the Atlantic Seaboard.  The current computer models show it delivering a glancing blow to North Carolina, Virginia and the DC area then moving north to cross near Long Island and into the New England coastal regions.

If Earl does hit Long Island it will be the first since Hurricane Bob back in 1991.  This site has lots of interesting facts about Long Island hurricanes. 

Again, this is a hunch, but if you live in NYC, you might want to keep and eye on this one.
