Maximum sustained winds are near 125
mph with higher gusts - a Category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson
Hurricane Wind Scale. Slow weakening is expected begin later today,
followed by steadier weakening Sunday and Sunday night.
Swells generated by Joaquin are affecting much of the southeastern coast of the United States and will spread northward along the east coast of the United States through the weekend.
Swells from Joaquin will begin affecting Bermuda today and continue through the weekend. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.
Even though Joaquin is expected to pass well east of the coast of the United States, a prolonged period of elevated water levels and large waves will affect the mid-Atlantic region, causing significant beach and dune erosion with moderate coastal flooding likely.
