The center of Earl will come as close as 320 miles to our coast, but you wouldn't know it by the weather, sunny, breezy and hot with highs a couple degrees either side of 90. The beaches however will feel the effects, High Surf Advisory, 5-9' waves, which will cause moderate beach erosion, plus there is a high risk for rip currents. Tonight, Earl will move up near the Outer Banks, mainly clear and mild, lows in the upper 60s to middle 70s. Sunny with near record highs on Friday in the mid to upper 90s. Mostly sunny Saturday and a little cooler with highs close to 90.
